In the hall of the Nanhou Mansion of the Emperor, Liu Jun was smoking leisurely.￥f, the cigarette had no filter, but it was not spicy when smoking. The tobacco seemed to be mixed with some herbs such as mint and lilac.

Liu Jun also just discovered that there was a record of tobacco in the Ming Dynasty as early as the Wanli period.

A grass was produced in Luzon, called Tamba. Burn one end with fire and face the mouth with one end. The smoke enters the throat from the tube, which can make people intoxicated and can ward off miasma. Some people planted it with Zhangzhou, but now it is more than Luzon, and it is sold in the country.

Tobacco has become a lot of people, not only men, but women, and children. In short, it feels like they treat cigarettes as snacks, and the number of smokers is already very wide. Cigarettes have even become a very profitable new industry. However, the court has never had a good impression of cigarettes, and Chongzhen even issued a ban on smoking several times. However, his ban on smoking is like many other decrees, which is basically useless.

Liu Rushi whispered, "Mr. Marquis, take a fewer sips. Although medical books say that tobacco can prevent frost, dew, wind and rain, eating this can kill malnutrition and eliminate malnutrition. But as the saying goes, it is three parts of medicine, and it is not good to smoke too much."

Liu Jun was still staying in the capital for the time being. Because the mansion was given by the emperor, he moved in so that he could sometimes stay in the capital, and it was also convenient for the teacher Mei and Li and the emperor to summon him at any time. Liu Jun brought a team of personal soldiers into the mansion, and Liu Jun also brought his brother Liu Jian over.

Li Chunjiang, Hou Fangyu, Fang Yizhi and others came to celebrate their new home and were lively. Originally, Liu Jun wanted to keep them here, but Hou Fang and others also had their own residences in the capital and lived at home. However, Liu Rushi did not follow Dong Xiaowan to Hou's house, but instead stayed there.

The marquis' mansion in the capital has no other master except the Liu Jun brothers. The servants, servants, coaches, chefs, and servants in the mansion are all available. After Liu Rushi stayed, he was not polite and directly regarded himself as the housekeeper in the mansion and assigned a few to mobilize the ones every day, but he also obeyed the dozens of people in the mansion.

The Liu Jun brothers had three meals a day, and even the carriages and horses that went out were arranged properly. Liu Jun was very satisfied. The servants in the mansion thought that Liu Rushi was the concubine of the Marquis, and everyone usually called her Mrs. Ru or Aunt Liu. Once, Liu Jun heard that a servant called Aunt Liu Rushi in front of him, but he did not make any corrections.

Since then, Liu Rushi has been more attentive, and she has even taken care of Liu Jun’s daily daily life, washing, etc.

Liu Jun did not refuse her fully expressed thoughts, but just followed the trend. A beautiful woman was circling around him. This was actually a very happy thing. Anyway, he didn't steal or steal. Could it be that Liu Jun was a marquis, and he was not free of such a small matter.

Listening to Liu Rushi's persuasion, Liu Jun smiled, "Okay, listen to you, don't smoke." As he said that, he handed the cigarette to Liu Rushi. Liu Rushi had prepared several good cigarette poles for Liu Jun. There were gold buckets and jade-mouthed ones, but Liu Jun didn't like such cigarette poles.

In fact, Liu Jun doesn't really like smoking at this time, he just tried the smoking at this time. First, he used this to reminisce about the feeling of smoking in the past, and secondly, he also wanted to understand and feel the profits of tobacco in this era. Tobacco is no less than tea. Especially when men, women, young and old are smoking at this time, tobacco is indeed very profitable. He doesn't even have to pay special heavy taxes like tea.

If possible, the Nine-Headed Bird can also be inserted, after all, the threshold for the tobacco industry is not high.

Liu Rushi took the cigarette roll and pressed it to the ashtray, then walked to the back and took a towel from the maid who was serving in the corner and twisted it in a hot water basin. When he walked back, he applied a few handfuls on Liu Jun's face. Liu Jun suddenly felt much more refreshed.

The young maids standing next to the hall looked at him. This aunt was really good at serving people. She was good-looking and good at serving people. She was just like guarding thieves, but she didn't give her a chance to approach the marquis. Originally, there were a few good-looking young maids in the mansion, but when she knew that she would serve Zhennan Marquis in the future, she had some thoughts.

However, with this Madam Ru in the mansion, there is no chance for them.

What a great Marquis, a young and handsome man, a favorite minister of the emperor, a student of the cabinet chief and second assistant. He was awarded the title of Marquis at a young age, and was still so young. It's a pity that it was a pity. I thought that the Marquis's wife might have some opportunities when they were from their hometown, but who knew that she would meet such a vixen who protects food and would not give her any chance.

At this time, Zhang Guozhu ran in a panic. When he entered the hall, his feet even tripped on the threshold and almost fell down. He was originally a smart and capable guard general, but he was panicked.

"Master"

"What's so panic? What's wrong?" Liu Jun glared at him and asked.

"Master, the emperor has arrived and has entered the mansion. It's coming here." Zhang Guozhu reported in panic.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was upset. Liu Rushi and the maids in the room all exclaimed. Another maid was lost in her mind and even dropped the basin of water in her hand.

Even Liu Jun was shocked when he heard this. Now this meal was all after supper, and the palace gate should have been closed. Why did the emperor come here at this time? And before he came, he did not send anyone to greet him, and there was no Jinyiwei Dongchang and others to come to check in advance. This was too sudden.

Liu Jun was thinking that Liu Qiao had arrived with a team of Jinyiwei in ordinary outfits.

"Jiye, be ready to take over the journey, the emperor is coming soon." Liu Qiao shouted as soon as he saw him.

"The emperor is really here in the humble house?"

"Get ready to pick it up."

Chongzhen did not mobilize the troops, nor did he bring any emperor to rely on the carriage or other things. He came here lightly and quietly. He only brought some factory guards and palace guards around him. Only Cao Huachun, Wang Chengen, Wang Zhixin, Liu Qiao were accompanied by several honorary ministers, Xu Yunzhen, Chengguo Duke Zhu Chunchen, British Duke Zhang Shize, and Li Guozhen, the governor of the Beijing Camp Xiangcheng.

The emperor left the palace late at night and visited Zhennan Hou Mansion privately. This was definitely a big surprise.

"My dear Liu Jun welcomes the emperor to come forward, I hope your Majesty will punish you!" Liu Jun didn't even have time to call all the servants in the mansion. Chongzhen was already wearing a casual outfit. Chongzhen was just a square scarf, dressed as a scholar. The eunuchs and ministers behind him were all dressed in men's outer clothes or housekeepers' equipment, and the guards were dressed as servants.

Chongzhen looked in a good mood, so he walked up and helped Liu Jun himself, "I came here temporarily and didn't inform you. Today I was in a private visit, so I didn't have to be so polite. If I don't call me today, you don't have to be so polite."

Liu Jun was stunned for a moment, and if he didn't give in, what would he call him?

"Jiye, how do you feel about this house? Are you still satisfied?" Chongzhen said as he entered the hall.

"Thank you for your reward, this house is very good."

"Hey, why are you called the king and the minister?" Chongzhen walked into the hall, sat down, and then called Liu Jun to sit with the others. "Jiye, just call me my father and I accept you as my adopted son."

As soon as the emperor said this, Liu Jun and the others who were about to sit down were shocked when they heard this. Everyone was stunned, and half of their butts were all shocked.

"From today, I will give you the national surname, yes, and then give you the name Ciye, and you will be named as a ancestral member. From now on, we father and son will be together. Are you willing?" Chongzhen sat there and asked.

Cao Huachun, Wang Chengen, and the three eunuchs of Wang Zhixin, all saw confusion and confusion in each other's eyes. The three of them were the closest officials around the emperor, but before that, they did not notice any of the wind. Just like the visit tonight in a silly dress, there was no warning.

The four ministers, Duke Cheng, Duke Ding, and Bo Xiangcheng, were also extremely shocked. The emperor actually wanted to accept his adopted son and gave him the surname Liu Jun. How could such a big thing be announced without any expectations? This is a huge matter, at least it must be announced on a very grand occasion. What's more, shouldn't such a big matter be considered and discussed?

Giving a surname is a great honor, but it will not shock everyone. The key is why did the emperor accept the adopted son after giving the surname and name. Why did he still need to be a naturalized son after taking the surname and name?

It is a major event to register a ancestral family. It is the genealogy of the royal family of the Ming Dynasty. Registration of a ancestral family means that Liu Jun will be a royal family in the future, and this is no longer as simple as accepting adopted sons. Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty accepted more than 100 adopted sons, but he did not see any one who was assigned to the ancestral family. Although Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty also gave several adopted sons a surname, none of them were assigned to the ancestral family.

Being a citizenship is like adopting and inheriting the inheritance of the people. In the future, Liu Jun's surname was Zhu, changed his name to Zhu Ciye, and he will no longer be a member of the Liu family, and he will become a royal clan.

Such adopted sons have a very strong status. Before Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he had accepted more than 20 adopted sons, the most famous of which were Zhu Wenzhong, Zhu Wenying, Zhu Wenhui and others. Zhu Wenzhong was Zhu Yuanzhang's nephew Li Wenzhong, and Zhu Wenying was Mu Ying. At that time, he named these adopted sons according to the Zhu family's generation, and later they were asked to restore their original surnames.

Liu Jun was also a little confused. Is Chongzhen joking?

But he doesn't look like he looks, so is this true?

"Why, you don't want to be granted the surname of the country or be my adopted son?" Chongzhen's voice increased a little, and he looked at Liu Jun who was stunned there.

Liu Qiao stood aside, more anxious than Liu Jun. Although the emperor did this, it was equivalent to turning the Liu family's children into the Zhu family, but this was also a rare honor, and it was the ultimate honor of the ministers. It was a good thing, and it was also a great thing for the Liu family. What else is there to hesitate about this? Besides, can this matter be rejected?

Liu Jun was really not willing at this time.

The good surname is Liu, why did he have to change it to Zhu? He even changed his name. The most dissatisfied is to be the adopted son of Chongzhen. How old is Chongzhen this year? Twenty-eight or twenty-nine? Liu Jun is twenty-year-old, and he is a son of a man less than ten years older than he is.

He didn't know why Chongzhen had such an intention, and felt that the only possibility was that Chongzhen wanted to win over him with this, so that he could devote himself to him and the Ming Dynasty.
