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

"Is this the general you were talking about tomorrow?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Hu Wei, who was brought to him by Zhu Ming, and slowly walked down from the dragon throne.

Although Hu Wei had never seen Zhu Yuanzhang, he knew that the old man in front of him, who was already very old but had a majestic presence without anger, was no ordinary person. He immediately knelt down and said, "Hu Wei, I pay my respects to your Majesty."

"Well, he's a character."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Hu Wei and nodded affirmatively.

Just by looking at his aura, Zhu Yuanzhang concluded that Hu Wei must be a brave and warlike man, and even had some of Chang Yuchun's qualities.

"Where did you work before?"

After confirming Hu Wei's ability, Zhu Yuanzhang returned to his position and once again inquired about his background.

After all, he is going to be a general beside Zhu Ming, so he cannot have a clean background.

When Hu Wei, who was kneeling, heard Zhu Yuanzhang's question, he was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Even though he didn't know etiquette, he knew that he used to be a bandit and he couldn't tell anyone about it in the palace.

"Grandpa Emperor, he is a hunter from Shanxi. I saw that he was very brave, so I let him join the army."

Hu Wei remained silent, and Zhu Ming stood by to help him smooth things over.

"After the mutiny, the position of the rebel general Jinghui became vacant, so he was temporarily appointed as the general guarding the city."

After saying that, he glanced in the direction of Hu Wei and winked at him.

"Ah."

After listening to Hu Wei's introduction, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction.

This background is relatively clean.

"But tomorrow."

As he spoke, he coughed and turned to look at Zhu Ming: "If you need help in the future, tell me."

If it were someone else who appointed officials without authorization, he would have been furious.

Only Zhu Ming could give him such a gentle reminder.

"Yes, I'll know tomorrow."

Zhu Ming immediately nodded in response.

Zhu Ming was so well behaved that Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction and waved his hand: "If you win the competition this time, I will appoint you as the garrison commander of Shanxi."

After all, he was employed by Zhu Ming. Zhu Yuanzhang would naturally not be stingy if it could help him protect his beloved grandson.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

When Hu Wei heard the reward Zhu Yuanzhang promised him, he looked up in shock and responded excitedly.

Although he didn't know the rank of this official, but the garrison commander of Shanxi sounded like a high-ranking official.

"Don't thank me yet, you have to win first."

Zhu Yuanzhang just waved his hand. It was still unknown whether he could win.

But in Hu Wei's view, it was just a matter of fighting.

After coming out of Daming Palace, Hu Wei patted Zhu Ming on the shoulder and smiled broadly: "Thank you for what you did just now."

If Zhu Ming had not helped to smooth things over when facing Zhu Yuanzhang's question, Hu Wei would have been unable to react for a while.

"I'm more curious about why you came here."

Zhu Ming just shook his head and looked at him in confusion.

His last impression of Hu Wei was when they met at Black Tiger Mountain.

After not seeing him for a month, he suddenly transformed into the helper sent by Shen Miao from Shanxi.

"We attacked Shanxi but failed to take it down, so the people on other hills are unhappy."

Upon hearing this, Hu Wei let out a long sigh.

These words were uttered by hundreds of brothers from the Black Tiger Mountain who had fought for a month and only a few dozen people were left standing here.

Then, he looked at Zhu Ming and told him everything that had happened to him in Shanxi over the past month.

How he was besieged by bandits from other hills, and how Shen Miao persuaded them to surrender.

Even when listening to it as a story, Zhu Ming was somewhat fascinated by it.

This Shen Miao does have some tricks up her sleeve.

"So when I heard that you were unemployed in the capital, I was asked to come here."

Only after Hu Wei finished speaking did Zhu Ming come to his senses.

"So how does it feel to eat the official food?"

Zhu Ming looked at Hu Wei and asked back.

"It's OK, just a little reserved."

Hu Wei shook his head. Although he didn't have to worry all day long when eating government food, there were more rules.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this. Do you have any wine?"

Hu Wei was silent for a while, then he waved his hand carelessly and shouted at Zhu Ming.

In order to get on the road as quickly as possible, he had not drunk a drop of wine along the way, and now he was very greedy.

Now that he had arrived at the capital and met the Emperor, he could no longer bear it.

"Let's go. There's plenty of wine."

Zhu Ming chuckled and nodded, turned around and walked in front, leading Hu Wei.

After leading Hu Wei to the side courtyard, Zhu Ming immediately asked Liu Jin to go down and asked people to bring over a few jars of wine and prepare a few dishes of snacks to entertain him.

"Drink as much as you want."

Since Hu Wei was helping him this time, he naturally would not treat Hu Wei unfairly.

These wines are all treasures of the palace. No one except the royal heirs is qualified to drink them.

Hu Wei didn't hesitate to sit down and started drinking from the jar of wine, which was quite heroic.

"I haven't had a drink in a few days. I'm dying of suffocation."

After taking a big gulp of wine, Hu Wei let out a sigh of satisfaction.

"As long as you can win, any wine is fine."

Zhu Ming looked at Hu Wei's insolent behavior and said with a smile.

"give it to me."

Hu Wei patted his chest and responded without raising his head.

"He is the person you transferred from Shanxi?"

Before Hu Wei had finished drinking, a voice came from outside the courtyard gate, with a teasing tone.

Hu Wei raised his head and looked at the young man standing at the door, stunned for a moment.

Although he didn't know these people, he knew that no one in the palace could afford to offend him.

And judging from his appearance, he seems to have a good relationship with Zhu Ming.

"Although it's a little different from what I thought, his ability is still trustworthy."

Zhu Ming nodded affirmatively. After seeing Hu Wei's abilities, he was almost certain that in Shanxi City, there was almost no one more brave than Hu Wei.

"Whatever you think is good."

Zhu Yunhuan had never met Hu Wei, and since Zhu Ming spoke so highly of him, he didn't say much.

Hu Wei just shook his head blankly and no longer paid attention to the conversation between Zhu Ming and Zhu Yunhuan.

It has nothing to do with him anyway.

"It's been raining for several days."

Zhu Yunhuan looked out the window, shook his head helplessly, and walked in.

Even in the capital, it is quite rare to have rain for so many days in a row.

"You didn't come here just to talk about the weather, did you?"

Zhu Ming looked at Zhu Yunhuan and asked with a smile.

Zhu Yunhuan is a person who would not come to the temple without a reason, so he must have come for something.

"of course."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yunhuan sneered and sat opposite Zhu Ming.

"It doesn't matter to him, just say it."

Zhu Ming glanced at Hu Wei. He had no roots here, so there was no need to pay too much attention to him.

He also believed that given Hu Wei's personality, he would not do such a thing as complaining.
