Hearing Sun Heding's refusal, Zhu Cixiang expressed his understanding, and of course he would not give up just like that. He then added: "I have also heard about Master Sun's talent. He was framed and killed by a traitor. It is really a loss to the country."

Zhu Cihong's words shocked Tang Ruowang and Sun Heding. They did not expect that His Highness the Crown Prince would have such insight at such a young age.

Especially when he said the word "treacherous minister", everyone present, including Xu Sheng and Wu Zhong, knew who the "treacherous minister" in His Highness's mouth was referring to. It was Wen Tiren, the chief minister of the current cabinet.

"Master..." Wu Zhong reminded Zhu Cixiang in a low voice, wanting him to pay more attention to what he said.

Zhu Cixiang didn't feel that he was being rash, and continued: "What? He framed a loyal minister, is he a traitor?"

"Your Highness, please stop talking..." Sun Heding quickly advised.

Sun Heding was greatly moved by Zhu Cixiang's ability to express his position on the spot. However, Zhu Cixiang's words would also bring trouble to himself.

It is true that the treacherous ministers framed him, but it was Chongzhen who finally ordered the death of Sun Yuanhua. When Zhu Cixi said this, wasn't he accusing the current emperor in disguise?

Of course Zhu Cihong knew this truth, but he was not afraid. In addition to Tang Ruowang and Sun Heding, there were also Wu Zhong and Xu Sheng. These two would never betray him.

As for Tang Ruowang and Sun Heding, they would only report them unless they were mentally ill. This was also the reason why he dared to speak out, all in order to win over Tang Ruowang and Sun Heding.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Zhu Cixiang stopped talking nonsense and directly said the biggest bargaining chip: "Mr. Sun, please rest assured that one day, I will definitely vindicate your father."

Hearing the personal promise of His Royal Highness, Sun Heding's body trembled slightly, and then he knelt down on the spot, his eyes a little moist, and said: "The common people are willing to die for His Highness!"

Zhu Cihong helped Sun Heding up, then looked at Tang Ruowang and said, "Mr. Tang, I will ask His Majesty the Father to grant you a Catholic plaque. This will be of some help to your missionary work."

"Thank you, Your Highness. You are truly a strange person. You have the demeanor of a wise king at such a young age." Tang Ruowang danced with excitement.

Seeing the two people being dealt with, Zhu Cixiang was naturally very happy, and the three of them began to sit down and chat in detail.

Zhu Cixiang briefly talked about the development of flintlock guns in later generations, hoping to set a goal for their research. Then he talked a lot with Tang Ruowang and Sun Heding about astronomy, mathematics and other fields.

Tang Ruowang and Sun Heding looked at each other and felt the shock in each other's eyes. Is the Crown Prince in front of him still a human being? He is less than ten years old and he actually knows so much? Some knowledge is even more advanced than the two of them.

Could it be that the real dragon is really reincarnated? Now, Tang Ruowang and Sun Heding, who have never been superstitious, have actually wavered in their faith.

"Master, it's time to return to the palace for dinner." Wu Zhong reminded him softly.

Zhu Cixiang was a little unhappy and said: "What's the rush? I'm late to meet you two gentlemen, so don't disturb us."

He didn't mean to show off, but he really had a deep conversation with the two of them.

After Zhu Cihong came to the Ming Dynasty, even though he was born and raised in the Ming Dynasty, he was still very depressed in the ancient environment without lights or electricity.

Especially the eunuchs and maids around him were either superstitious or nagging. In future generations, they would be no different than stupid coins. Zhu Cixi could hardly talk to them and could only arrange for them to do things.

Today I met Tang Ruowang and Sun Heding and talked about some modern knowledge. Zhu Cixiang's heart seemed to be liberated.

"Your Highness might as well dine here and taste the exotic flavors." Sun Heding suggested.

Zhu Cihong nodded, smiled at Tang Ruowang and said, "Yes, I will have dinner at Mr. Tang's place today."

Tang Ruowang was naturally overjoyed and hurriedly took his servants to cook in person, while Zhu Cihong and Sun Heding continued to discuss the flintlock issue.

It didn't take long for Tang Ruowang and his servants to prepare a sumptuous meal.

Tang Ruowang personally came out with two cups of tea and said: "There is no good food at home. I hope Your Highness will take care of you a little more."

Zhu Cihong took the tea, glanced at it, and said with a smile: "I thought Mr. Tang brought me coffee, but it turned out to be Biluochun."

Tang Ruowang's eyes widened and he said: "Oh, God, the coffee you mentioned is called the 'devil's drink' in our place and is not drinkable. How dare I give His Highness that kind of thing to drink?"

Zhu Cixiang shook his head and said nothing. It seemed that coffee had not yet become popular in Europe. At this time, the Catholic Church was still rejecting coffee. Later, after the Pope tasted it himself, he thought it was drinkable and blessed the coffee. Coffee gradually became popular in Europe, but then

It will all be decades later.

"Is this a chili pepper?" Zhu Cixi picked up the red chili pepper in a dish and asked in surprise.

Since he came to the Ming Dynasty, he has never seen chili peppers in these years. The spiciness in the imperial dishes is all mixed with mustard, onions, ginger and garlic, and it doesn't taste authentic spiciness at all.

"This is pepper, extremely spicy. Your Highness, be careful." Tang Ruowang quickly reminded.

"Isn't this just chili pepper? I recognize it!" Zhu Cixi laughed and took a bite.

Suddenly, a spicy feeling rushed straight to his forehead. Zhu Cixiang felt refreshed and his whole person was different. He used to love spicy food the most, but now he tasted this long-lost taste again, which gave him an indescribable feeling.

!

"This... His Highness is truly a god..." Tang Ruowang and Sun Heding looked at Zhu Cixiang with admiration in their eyes.

Although chili peppers were introduced to the Ming Dynasty decades ago, some people have tried to eat them. However, because they are so spicy, people who have eaten them have been touched by their senses and thought they were poisoned!

Since then, almost no one dared to eat them, and they only regarded peppers as ornamental flowers, which were recorded in a book called "Caohua Pu" and were called "Pan peppers".

"It's great!" Zhu Cixi took a sip of tea and couldn't help but admired it.

During the meal, Zhu Cihong and Tang Ruowang chatted about some chili issues, such as where can I get large quantities of them now?

Although Tang Ruowang didn't know why the prince was so interested in peppers, he still answered carefully. Finally, he presented some pepper seeds to Zhu Cihong and explained to him how to cultivate them.

Zhu Cixi understood it as soon as he heard it. He had personally planted peppers in another time and space. Although it was just for fun, he also understood the peppers very well. The main reason was that it was too simple. You only need to find a place with a suitable temperature to plant it.

Zhu Cixiang planned to buy some land in the south in his own name to plant peppers on a large scale. He finally considered the area in southern Anhui, where the bandit rebellion had just been put down, and many large landowners' land was uncultivated and abandoned. At this time, he bought it at a low price.

It's most suitable to come.

As for why he planted peppers, Zhu Cixiang would not tell them that this was a way to make a fortune!
