Chen Wuxian?

If it weren't for Liao Huanzhi's mention, Zhu Yicheng would have almost forgotten Chen Wuxian.

As the leader of the Fujian Uprising, Chen Wuxian was also a sensible figure, but in recent years, Chen Wuxian's reputation in the Ming Dynasty was not obvious, and he was even very low-key.

After the defeat and surrender to the Ming Dynasty, Chen Wuxian played a significant role in the Ming Dynasty's battle to regain Fujian. However, after the regaining of Fujian, Chen Wuxian gradually faded out of the army and no longer held a real position.

This is not because Zhu Yicheng treats him badly. As the leader of the rebel army, Chen Wuxian is still very popular with the people. Moreover, Zhu Yicheng is not so stingy, even Zhu Jiancai can tolerate him, let alone Chen Wuxian?

Chen Wuxian took the initiative to "retreat to the second line" in fact, it was actually his own request. In his opinion, it was not as good as Zhu Yigui, who came from behind, and he was even worse than ordinary officials in the court. His so-called contribution was only to lead the uprising in Fujian that year, but even if that uprising was not taken in by the Ming Dynasty later, Chen Wuxian would have been wiped out by Lan Li and his main force long ago.

Chen Wuxian is different from a hero like Yuan Qi and Zhu Jiancai. The main reason for his uprising was his heart towards the Ming Dynasty and his heartfelt hatred for the Qing Dynasty. This person is charming, but he has no desire for power. After assisting the Ming Dynasty to pacify Fujian, Chen Wuxian voluntarily gave up his rights and resigned from his position as a general.

Zhu Yicheng still admires such a "honest man", and as the leader of the rebel army, Zhu Yicheng was also happy to set him up as a benchmark. However, Chen Wuxian was not keen on power, so later Zhu Yicheng only appointed him as a marquis and arranged for him to have a free time in the Governor's Office of the Five Army.

During these years, Chen Wuxian has been living in Nanjing. His residence is Zhu Yichengsheng. He rarely shows up in the court. Except for the grand court meetings and some important occasions, he lives on weekdays no different from ordinary people. It is said that he has moved out of Nanjing recently and built a village near the south of the city to build more than a dozen acres of land. He rests on sunrise and sunset every day like an old farmer, and enjoys it.

Today, Liao Huanzhi suddenly mentioned him. After Zhu Yicheng thought about it carefully, he suddenly felt that this was indeed a suitable candidate. Although Chen Wuxian did not have a real position, his status was not low. He was able to hold on to the local marquis. Moreover, if he really wanted to talk about it, he was still an important official of the military. After all, the idleness of the Governor's Office of the Five Army was also poor, and this level was there.

More importantly, Chen Wuxian had a high prestige in Fujian, and his personality was as evil as a vengeance. It was indeed the best thing to ask him to go to Fujian with Xu Xu, the right censor of the Censorate.

The next day, Chen Wuxian, who learned that Zhu Yicheng was going to see him, hurriedly entered the palace from the south city, and then entered the Danei. In order to show respect for him, Zhu Yicheng specially met him in the main hall.

"My Lord Jianning Chen Wuxian bowed to the emperor, long live the saint!"

As soon as he saw Zhu Yicheng, Chen Wuxian quickly gave a big ceremony to worship. Zhu Yicheng made him a marquis back then, which was to commend his achievements in the Fujian uprising. At the same time, under the name of Jianning, it also told the world that Chen Wuxian's origin of this marquis.

He smiled and asked Chen Wuxian to get up, but Zhu Yicheng's eyes fell on a cloth bag beside him, and he asked curiously what it was.

Ordinary ministers face saints and generally do not carry items except memorials and documents. After all, the emperor's safety is extremely important. Even if there are items to be brought to the emperor, they will be handed over to the Xiaohuangmen first. After reporting to the emperor, they will be taken over by the Xiaohuangmen.

However, Chen Wuxian brought a cloth bag directly when he came here. The cloth bag was not big. At best, it looked similar to the schoolbag, and it was packed with bulging clothes. As for what it was inside, I don’t know. But it is certain that this would definitely not be a dangerous item. After all, you have to check the items in the Sanctuary before you can bring them into the palace.

When Chen Wuxian heard Zhu Yicheng's question, he immediately replied with a smile. The cloth bag contained something he had grown in the south farm in Chengnan. It contained five or six kinds of grains, including rice, millet, sweet potatoes, beans, etc. Although there were not many things, it was not worth much money. It was just because I came to see Zhu Yicheng today and specially brought it to the emperor for a try.

"Are these grown by my beloved?" Zhu Yicheng was stunned when he heard this.

"When I was born as a farmer, I planted some food in my own farm when I was idle. I didn't grow much, but it was enough for me to use it on weekdays."

"Take it for me to see." Zhu Yicheng said with a smile, and soon took the cloth bag from the small yellow door beside him. Zhu Yicheng put it on the table, opened the knot, reached out to grab it, and it was indeed as Chen Wuxian said, which was filled with ordinary food.

The amount of these grains is not large, and they only look ten pounds together. They also look very ordinary, not as good as the fine grain used in the palace. But looking at the grains and looking at Chen Wuxian, who was wearing a python robe and had a frosty face, Zhu Yicheng was slightly moved.

"A few days ago, the Queen was telling me that although the food in the palace is sophisticated, it lacks some folk fireworks. If you eat too much, you will feel a little bit like the simple food you used to be. This is a coincidence. It is just right for my dear to give these things today. I thank you for your dear to me."

"As long as the emperor and the empress like it, if the emperor doesn't dislike the things that the ministers have, I thought about it and asked someone to tell me that I would send some more. Anyway, it's all grown by me and it's not worth much money." Chen Wuxian grinned and laughed happily. Zhu Yicheng was also happy to see him like this. If it were someone else, I would probably immediately say that the food from his farm will be supplied to the palace regularly, and praise the hard work of farming. Chen Wuxian was fine, and even said hello when he needed it and sent it to him, and said that this thing was not worth much. This was almost the same as the answers of the people who visited relatives.

However, the more Chen Wuxian did this, the more satisfied Zhu Yicheng was. For Zhu Yicheng, since he became the emperor, he had to listen to those flattery and flattering words many times every day. No matter who he was in the court, he could be said to be a human being. Every time the monarch and ministers answered, he was cautious and tried his best to figure out his thoughts.

In addition to the queen Li Juaner, perhaps only Wu Sidao could talk to him about something in the tone of a friend in the whole court. Now there is another Chen Wuxian. Compared with Wu Sidao, who is smart, capable and meticulous, Chen Wuxian looks more real and sincere.

Zhu Yicheng, who was in a good mood, talked with Chen Wuxian on this topic. He listened to Chen Wuxian showing off his skills in managing crops with his neighbors like an ordinary old farmer, and talked about when to sow, how to weed, when to pay attention to changes in integrity, and what to feel during harvesting. Zhu Yicheng listened with relish.
