Ming Dynasty: Abandoned baby at the beginning, Zhu let me be the emperor

Chapter 177 Call Sijin

"When will this grandson of the emperor arrive?"

Wang Ganju, wearing a red court robe, led a group of officials and stood outside the city of Shanxi. It was unknown how long they had been waiting.

Some impatient officials had already come up to Wang Ganju and started urging him.

"According to the time, it should be soon."

Wang Ganju looked up at the sky and responded hesitantly.

Although His Royal Highness the Grandson said in his reply that it would arrive at this time.

But this is His Royal Highness the Grandson of the Emperor, and Wang Ganju cannot guarantee what he says.

Not to mention other officials, even he, the prefect, had complaints in his heart but he just didn't dare to speak them out.

"You all should be careful."

As he said this, he turned around and reprimanded the officials: "When His Royal Highness the Grandson first arrived, he captured a county magistrate."

"If His Royal Highness the Grandson has any evidence against you, don't blame me for not saving you."

These officials were so exhausted from Wang Ganju's scolding that they could only nod and say yes.

Looking at the appearance of his men, Wang Ganju could only snort coldly.

Don't you know the details of these people?

If His Royal Highness the Grandson really wanted to investigate, they would keep silent.

"I'm coming."

While Wang Ganju was giving a speech, a scout came running over in a hurry and pointed in the direction he was coming from.

As soon as he finished speaking, several carriages appeared in Wang Ganju's sight.

"Wang Ganju, the prefect of Shanxi, is waiting for your arrival."

Wang Ganju hurriedly took the officials of all ranks in Shanxi, straightened his clothes, and saluted towards the carriage.

"Master Wang, please stand up."

Zhu Ming spoke in a deep voice, then slowly walked down from the carriage.

Gousheng and Liu Jin also walked out of the carriage and stood quietly behind Zhu Ming.

"Who is this……"

Wang Ganju looked at Gousheng in confusion and asked.

He knew about Zhu Ming's personal eunuch Liu Jin, but he had never heard that there were other people around His Highness.

"Do not bother me."

Before Zhu Ming opened his mouth, Gou Sheng spoke in a cold voice.

Zhu Ming could only smile helplessly at Gou Sheng's character and said, "My Lord, don't mind it."

"I have prepared a banquet to welcome your Highness."

Wang Ganju laughed awkwardly a few times, not caring about Gousheng's response. As he spoke, he took the initiative to lead Zhu Ming towards the government office.

"In this year of great disaster, Lord Wang has gone too far."

Zhu Ming frowned and looked at Wang Ganju.

Could it be that this prefect is the same kind of person as the county magistrate whose official hat he had removed?

"Prepare some small dishes. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

The prefect just smiled meaningfully at Zhu Ming, leaving Zhu Ming confused.

"This is……"

It was not until Zhu Ming was led into the government office and saw the banquet prepared for him by Wang Ganju that he understood the meaning of Wang Ganju's smile.

Pickles, radishes, and white porridge, that’s all for the banquet.

The side dishes that Wang Ganju mentioned are really side dishes.

"I know that Your Highness is a frugal person, so I dare not be extravagant."

Wang Ganju chuckled a few times behind Zhu Ming.

He had also heard about Zhu Ming's actions in the county, and of course he did not dare to offend His Royal Highness the Grandson of the Emperor.

Although life is a bit hard, His Royal Highness the Grandson will only stay in Shanxi for a few months, just to clear his stomach.

"It's okay. This is fine."

Although Zhu Ming felt somewhat relieved to see that what Wang Ganju prepared was so simple.

But amidst the relief, there is still some sense of loss.

This is quite different from the delicacies I had just imagined.

"If Your Highness is not used to it, I will order someone to prepare some meat dishes."

Wang Ganju spoke from behind Zhu Ming.

"No, that's it."

Zhu Ming waved his hand. He had even played the role of a homeless disaster victim before, so what was wrong with this?

As he spoke, he walked over and started eating.

"Why are you standing there? Eat."

While he was eating, he did not forget to call Liu Jin and Gou Sheng over: "Don't waste Lord Wang's kindness."

Liu Jin and Gou Sheng had also lived a hard life, so they didn't say much and just walked over and started eating.

Wang Ganju watched from the side and chuckled a few times.

"Your Highness, please enjoy your meal. I will withdraw now."

He bowed to Zhu Ming again, and then retreated without waiting for Zhu Ming to speak.

"Sir, how's it going?"

As soon as Wang Ganju came out, a group of officials were already waiting outside the door and immediately started asking anxiously.

"It's done."

Wang Ganju gave a few wicked laughs and led these people to the side courtyard.

In the side courtyard, there were plates of delicacies from land and sea.

"Isn't it good for us to be like this?"

Some officials watched and couldn't help but ask.

"What words."

Wang Ganju immediately straightened up after hearing this and turned back to look at the official who had spoken at the beginning: "Master Zhang, if His Highness is frugal, then let him be frugal. We can't let you all suffer."

As he spoke, he walked to his seat, got himself a glass of wine and started drinking.

Seeing this, the other officials also sat down and began to enjoy the food.

Even Lord Zhang, after hesitating for a while, shook his head and sat down to eat.

"The dog left behind."

After finishing his meal, Zhu Ming began to look at Gousheng seriously.

From the very beginning, he felt that the name Gousheng was somewhat inappropriate.

When Wang Ganju asked just now, if he had heard him call him Gousheng, he would probably have laughed out loud.

"what happened?"

Gousheng looked at Zhu Ming with some confusion and asked.

"Can you……"

Zhu Ming hesitated for a moment before he looked at him. After all, it was Gousheng's name, so he was more tactful: "Do you want to think of a nickname for your name?"

Gousheng also understood Zhu Ming's meaning and remained silent for a while.

He had never thought about this question before.

"can."

But since Zhu Ming has spoken, let’s think of a nickname.

"What do you think, Sijin?"

Zhu Ming looked at Gousheng, examining him up and down for a while.

Since she is a girl, it is better to give her a more feminine name.

The name Gousheng is really hard to describe.

After saying that, he looked at Gousheng cautiously, not knowing whether she was satisfied with the name he had thought of.

But among the three of us here, I'm the one who reads the most, so I'll just leave the task of naming to myself.

"Si Jin..."

Gousheng was silent for a while, and muttered the name Zhu Ming gave her several times.
