[PS: It's all 2000 words per chapter. Brothers, are you sure you don't want to give me some fresh flowers, monthly votes, and evaluation votes to support it?]
Yingtian Prefecture.
In the Imperial Palace.
In the Minister's office, a eunuch handed a letter from Yao Guangxiao to Zhu Di.
Zhu Di opened the letter and glanced at it. A happy expression appeared on his face.
"Haha, this kid actually wrote me a letter about Dao Yan's worries.”Zhu Di laughed heartily. The Dao Yan he mentioned was Yao Guangxiao's Dharma name.
"Father, what made you so happy?”Zhu Gaochi asked.
"Take a look." Zhu Di smiled and handed the letter to Zhu Gaochi.
Zhu Gaochi read the contents of the letter and said in surprise,""This fourth brother…This is outrageous."
"Zhen feels that Fourth Brother is doing quite well. He can be considered to have relieved Daoyan's boredom. Otherwise, he would always appear as an eminent monk!”
"But this brat is also the same. I told him to go to Jiming Temple to reflect on his mistakes, but he harmed the chickens, ducks, and geese raised in Dao Yan Temple.”
When Zhu Di said this, not only was he not angry at what Zhu Gaochen had done, but there was also a hint of pride in his tone.
Zhu Gaochi saw that Zhu Di was so happy and couldn't say anything. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
She had a willful father!
He would definitely have an even more willful son!
"Men!" Zhu Di looked out of the hall and shouted,"Prepare the carriage. I'm going to Jiming Temple."”
Upon hearing that Zhu Di was going to Jiming Temple, Zhu Gaochi said anxiously,""Emperor, this memorial…"
"Do as you see fit." Zhu Di waved his hand and left with a smile.
.......
On the other side.
Jichao Temple.
Inside the room.
Zhu Gaochen, who had eaten his fill outside, fell asleep on the bed the moment he returned to his room.
He did not wake up even after sunset.
At the same time, the Imperial Guards escorted Zhu Di to Jiming Temple.
When Yao Guangxiao received the news, he led a few disciples to the entrance of the temple to welcome them.
"This poor monk Dao Yan greets the emperor."
When Yao Guangxiao and his disciples saw Zhu Di, they bowed to him with devout expressions.
"Forget it." Zhu Di waved his hand indifferently and asked,""Where's King Nan? Why didn't he come out to welcome you?"
King Nan is still sleeping." Yao Guang is filial.
"It's not even night time yet. Why is he sleeping?" Zhu Di was puzzled.
"Reporting to the emperor, King Nan has been sleeping since he returned at noon.”Yao Guangxiao said.
"How interesting. This is the first time this old man has encountered such a thing.”Zhu Di shook his head and smiled.”
Zhu Di and Yao Guangxiao entered Jiming Temple together.
The remaining Imperial Ming Guards surrounded Jiming Temple and strictly protected Zhu Di's safety to prevent anyone with evil intentions from entering the temple.
In a room.
Zhu Di and Yao Guangxiao pushed the door open and entered Zhu Gaochen's room.
"This kid is sleeping quite soundly!”Zhu Di didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Hearing this, Yao Guangxiao didn't know how to answer.
How could she not sleep soundly? He was served with meat and wine every day. He didn't eat a single bite of vegetarian food. He ate and slept, slept and ate. He lived like an immortal.
"Wake him up!" Zhu Di turned to Yao Guangxiao, signaling him to wake Zhu Gaochen up.
Yao Guangxiao took a step forward and pushed Zhu Gaochen who was sleeping soundly,""King Nan, wake up!"
In his sleep, Zhu Gaochen vaguely heard someone calling him, and the voice seemed to be Yao Guangxiao. He subconsciously muttered,""Old monk, don't disturb me. Let this king sleep for a while more!”
Yao Guangxiao saw that he was sleeping soundly and sighed helplessly.""The Emperor is here!"
The Emperor?
Suddenly, Zhu Gaochen opened his eyes when he heard the word 'Emperor'. He sprung up from the bed like a spring.
Then, she turned her gaze and coincidentally met Zhu Di's gaze.
Zhu Di's face darkened as he glared at Zhu Gaochen.
"Father, why are you here?" Zhu Gaochen said in astonishment, not feeling sleepy at all.
"If this one hadn't come, there would probably be no living things in this Jiming Temple.”Zhu Di scolded coldly.
Hearing this, Zhu Gaochen turned to Yao Guangxiao and said angrily,""Old monk, as a monk, how can you secretly tell on me? Buddha will punish you!"
"I've sinned, I've sinned." Yao Guangxiao put his palms together, his face devout.
"Don't change the topic to Dao Yan. I'm asking you, why did you come to Jiming Temple?”Zhu Di questioned.
"Reflect on my mistakes." Zhu Gaochen replied.
"You still know that it's to reflect on your mistakes? To reflect on one's mistakes is to serve wine and meat every day? Catching a chicken, a duck, and a goose is considered a sin?" Zhu Di gritted his teeth.
"Father, you've wronged me. Reflecting on one's mistakes doesn't have to be revealed on the surface, but one has to reflect from the bottom of their hearts.”
"Besides, there's no conflict between reflecting on my mistakes and eating. Do I have to stop eating and drinking just to reflect on my mistakes?"
Zhu Gaochen drew inferences from Zhu Di's question.
"This... This bastard!" Zhu Di was so angry that he took off his dragon boots on the spot. He then raised his dragon boots high and wanted to beat Zhu Gaochen up.
Zhu Gaochen was not the type to suffer losses. Seeing that the situation was not looking good, he quickly pulled Yao Guangxiao in front of him.
"Old monk, is it considered a violation of the precepts for the Son of Heaven to beat people up in the temple?”Zhu Gaochen asked as he used Yao Guangxiao to block him.
Yao Guangxiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Why didn't you say that you violated the precepts when you ate meat and drank wine in the temple?
Now that Zhu Di was teaching his son a lesson, was he breaking the precepts?
"Dao Yan, get out of my way. Today, I must teach this brat a lesson!”Zhu Di raised his dragon boots and glared at Zhu Gaochen, who was standing behind Yao Guangxiao.
At this moment, Zhu Di's attitude was no different from that of an old landlord lecturing his son.
In fact, it had only been a few decades since the Zhu family had conquered the Ming Dynasty. The cumbersome rules of the royal family and nobles had not yet been deeply ingrained into their bones.
Other than the necessary distinction between monarch and minister.
Many of their habits were no different from those of ordinary people.
Take Zhu Yuanzhang for example. After he became emperor, he often chased Zhu Biao around the world with shoes or rattan.
"Dad, calm down. If you really can't calm down, let the old monk recite the scriptures for you.”As he spoke, Zhu Gaochen seized the opportunity, bent over, and dashed out.
Only Zhu Di was left in a mess in the wind.
As for Yao Guangxiao, he also closed his eyes and put his palms together, muttering something.
It was night.
In the meditation room.
"Your Majesty, please have some tea." Yao Guangxiao poured Zhu Di a cup of freshly brewed Biluochun tea.
Zhu Di took the tea from Yao Guangxiao and asked,""Dao Yan, how many chickens, ducks, and geese did Fourth eat?”
"This Penniless Monk is not too sure." Yao Guangxiao shook his head.
"Get those young monks to count how much is missing. I'll give you the money. Your dilapidated temple has been around for some years. It's time to repair it.”Zhu Di said helplessly. After all, he was Zhu Gaochen's father.
Although the world was the land of the king.
However, in Zhu Di's imperceptible understanding, as long as it did not involve the sovereignty of the country, he had to compensate for such matters. He could not do whatever he wanted just because he was the emperor!
