But after thinking about it, he could understand the situation of these two people.

Take himself for example, as a modern man who has been baptized by all kinds of seasonings.

When I first ate instant noodles, I was also attracted by this food full of MSG seasoning.

The only seasonings available to ancient people, especially those from the lower classes like them, were soy sauce, salt, and vinegar.

It’s not that there are no other seasonings, but they simply can’t afford them.

Things like cinnamon, pepper, and Sichuan peppercorns are only enjoyed by powerful officials and dignitaries.

It’s inevitable to be excited when you eat something as flavorful as instant noodles for the first time.

After all, food is the most important and indispensable enjoyment for human beings.

Watching the two people stuffing noodles into their mouths in big mouthfuls, Wei Wu felt like he was watching a food show.

Although he had no interest in instant noodles, he couldn't help but pick a bowl when he saw the two of them eating so happily.

But I lost my appetite immediately after eating it, it was just to fill my stomach.

It was boring to just eat, so Wei Wu just started chatting with the two of them.

"By the way, I don't know what to call you two brothers yet."

When Brother Shen heard Wei Wu asking, he immediately put down his bowl and chopsticks.

"In reply to Master Wei, my surname is Shen and my given name is Lin."

After Shen Lin finished speaking, the bearded guard quickly put down his bowl and chopsticks and said:

"My name is Zhang Hai, Master Wei, thank you for giving us brothers a meal."

Seeing that the two of them looked like they wanted to eat but were worried about what he would say, Wei Wu laughed.

"Don't stop, let's eat and talk at the same time. Filling our stomachs is the most important thing."

Hearing this, Shen Lin and Zhang Hai were extremely happy.

During the subsequent conversation, the two of them bounced the noodles and the juice splashed.

Wei Wu didn't notice and all the noodles in the pot were eaten up by them.

Even after getting Wei Wu's permission, Zhang Hai simply held the pot and drank all the soup.

Judging from his expression, Shen Lin standing next to him obviously had the same plan, but Zhang Hai got there first.

These are ten packs of instant noodles. Were the stomachs of ancient people so strong?

Seeing that Zhang Hai was about to lick the bottom of the pot, Wei Wu cooked two more pots of noodles while chatting with them.

However, in the process, Wei Wu also learned a lot about the situation of the Ming Dynasty from them.

First, the Yiluansi was abolished, and the Jinyiwei organization had been established, but it was still being integrated and had not been announced to the public.

Secondly, on the first day of September last year, the Ming Dynasty vowed to send troops to the southwest to conquer the remnant of the Yuan Dynasty, King Liang.

In the intercalary February of this year, news of a great victory came. The Yuan Hu Liang Wang was defeated, and Yunnan and Guizhou were brought under the rule of the Ming Dynasty.

Although this was a great victory, it even expanded the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

But Wei Wu knew that there would be more troubles waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang in the future.

At that time, the people in the southwest were fierce and the chieftains were separatist. Compared to conquering them, management was the real problem.

However, Wei Wu did not pay much attention to these things. After all, in his opinion, Yunnan and Guizhou have always been the inherent territories of China.

If Zhu Yuanzhang went to fight Japan, that would be what Wei Wu wanted to see most.

"Hey! Otherwise, I'll try to persuade Lao Zhu to focus on Japan."

"After all, there's a world-famous super silver mountain over there. Just for this reason, Lao Zhu can't refuse!"

"If you can convince Lao Zhu, I'll be the first to attack Japan. Not a single one of the 400,000 bullets will be wasted!"

While thinking about how to carry out the Tokyo Massacre, he chatted with the two people in front of him.

Time often passes quickly when chatting, and by the time Wei Wu came to his senses, it was already very late.

The two pots of noodles that were cooked later were almost soaked in the big soup pot.

But I don’t think the guards would care about these things, as long as they taste good and can fill their stomachs.

After asking Shen Lin and Zhang Hai to move the soup pot out to entertain his brothers, Wei Wu went straight back to his room to sleep.

When you have no worries about food and drink, there is no concept of time in life.

After coming to this world, Wei Wu basically sleeps when he wants to and doesn't get up when he doesn't want to.

I've gotten used to sleeping until I wake up naturally.

However, he did not get what he wanted today. He was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly awakened by the noise outside.

Although the noise was not loud, he still opened his eyes as he was already accustomed to silence.

When he opened the gate of the yard in his pajamas, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.

I saw a eunuch holding a piece of golden silk cloth in his hands, standing in front of his house with a dozen strong men.

Seeing Shen Lin and Zhang Hai standing among the dozen or so strong men, Wei Wu immediately asked:

"You guys, this is it?"

As soon as Wei Wu finished speaking, the eunuch standing at the front of the team immediately spoke up:

"Master Wei, His Majesty has ordered me to bring this to you."

When he heard that it was an imperial edict, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Wei Wu's face.

Why didn’t anyone inform me in advance? At least I could have been prepared!

I am the first person in history to receive an imperial edict in my pajamas!

Thinking of this, Wei Wu was about to ask if he could wait until he changed his clothes before receiving the order.

This eunuch was very good at observing people's expressions and spoke before Wei Wu could even open his mouth.

"Don't worry, Young Master Wei. This is His Majesty's order. I'll convey it to you after you wake up."

"And there's no need to announce the decree in public. All we need to do is bring the imperial decree to you and have the magistrate dictate it."

To be honest, this move by Lao Zhu did touch Wei Wu's emotions a little.

This is obviously because of the six hundred year gap, so the details and processes were deliberately simplified.

And from the sweat on these people's foreheads, it can be seen that they have probably been waiting at the door for quite some time.

"What's your surname, eunuch?"

Eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty were also called Zhongguan, who were specifically responsible for conveying the emperor's will and serving the emperor.

Only those with higher status than eunuchs would be addressed as "gonggong" with their surname added.

Wei Wu himself held no official position and no title, so it would be correct to call him a eunuch.

But this Wang Zhongguan was also very interesting. After Wei Wu asked, he immediately responded:

"I dare not speak of my wealth in front of Master Wei. My last name is Wang, so Master Wei can just call me Eunuch Wang."

Hearing this, Wei Wu couldn't help but sigh, no wonder he could get to the point of conveying the emperor's orders.

Look how beautifully this statement is made. It directly puts yourself in a low position.

Wei Wu was thinking about this when Eunuch Wang showed the imperial edict in his hand.

"Master Wei, may I please come in and verbally convey His Majesty's will?"

Hearing this, Wei Wu opened the door and the two of them walked into the yard together.

"Your Majesty has orally instructed that whether receiving an imperial decree or meeting the Emperor, Young Master Wei may enjoy special privileges and not be required to perform the ritual of kneeling and bowing."

As soon as he stood still, Eunuch Wang spoke directly and opened the imperial edict casually.

"The Emperor, by the Mandate of Heaven, proclaims: Heaven blesses the Great Ming, and I am blessed with the virtuous Wei Wu..."

Wang Zhongguan said a lot of things, but to sum it up, it was actually just two things.

First, he gave Wei Wu a house and asked him to move in immediately.

Secondly, in order to make Wei Wu's life more convenient, he was specially equipped with 32 male and female servants.

Among them were twelve servants, three grooms, two doormen, two servants, and one manager.

The maids included three servants, four maids, one cook and four maids.

At the same time, just as Wang Zhongguan was announcing the decree.

In the harem of the Forbidden City, Empress Ma also ordered someone to summon a young girl.
