Yongle seven years, summer.

Zhao Da, the king of Wu, will set up the crown prince Zhao Xian. After hearing this, the emperor sighed: "I have not seen King Wu for decades. Although the blood relationship is strong, it is inevitable that the relationship will become weaker. I don't want my children and grandchildren to see each other in the future." I don't know each other. Why don't you let the crown prince Zhao Xian go to Jinling and live there for a few months to get close to the prince in Beijing."

When the imperial decree was introduced to the state of Wu, King Zhao Da of Wu frowned.Seeing that the relationship between the feudal lord and the court has become increasingly tense in recent years, wouldn't he be using Zhao Xian as a hostage when he sent Zhao Xian to Jinling?If the emperor wanted to cut down the vassal later, Wu Guo would have no choice but to respond if he wanted to protect the crown prince. If he did not protect the crown prince... Zhao Da was in pain. He not only made Zhao Xian the crown prince but Zhao Xian was the eldest son, it was also because he loved Zhao the most. Xian.He is reluctant to let him abandon his son like this.

The king of Wu was very troubled by this, and immediately recruited counselors to discuss countermeasures.

Prime Minister Zhan Hongyuan and Taiwei Jiang Yang had already frowned on this.

Taiwei Jiang Yang has a rough temper, when he heard that Prince Zhao Xian was suspected of being used as a hostage in the court, he immediately said angrily: "Emperor Nian (emperor) is bound to cut down the feudal clan, Your Majesty, I can't wait to die!"

King Wu pondered for a moment, his thoughts were chaotic.

Prime Minister Zhan Hongyuan glanced at Taiwei Jiang Yang, "Does Taiwei want to encourage His Majesty to rebel?"

The big hat was buckled down, and Taiwei Jiang Yang couldn't sit still, "So what?! It's forced by Emperor Nian! Is the prime minister willing to send His Royal Highness to Jinling as a hostage?"

He looked at King Wu again, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, we still have the power to oppose it. If His Royal Highness enters the capital of Wu, we will be passive."

There is an opposite force that is not Taiwei Jiang Yang's ability.The state of Wu is located in the southeast, and the coastal area is rich in salt.King Wu boiled seawater into salt and sold it all over the country, earning a lot of money.Kuang Wu's Yuzhang County is rich in copper. Several generations of King Wu cast copper coins and circulated in Wei Dynasty. The economy is very prosperous.

Therefore, King Wu was not indifferent to Taiwei Jiang Yang's proposal.

The prime minister, Zhan Hongyuan, is a civil servant. Unlike the Taiwei, he has always advocated peace.Seeing that the King of Wu seemed to be moved, he hurriedly dissuaded him: "Now there are six kingdoms in the Wei Dynasty, and none of the other five kingdoms has responded. Why should our Wu kingdom be that early bird?"

The Taiwei stared, "The Emperor didn't let the princes from other five countries enter Beijing that year!"

"Taiwei, please calm down." The prime minister raised his voice, "Have you ever thought about rebelling rashly, but is it reasonable to stand on our side? The emperor of the year has not cut down the vassal, do you have a valid reason to send troops? !"

The Taiwei almost blew his beard and stared, "Isn't it a reason for the Emperor Nian to let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince enter Beijing?"

"The Emperor Nian let His Highness the Crown Prince enter the court in the name of family reunion, and he never humiliated the Crown Prince. How can we send troops? Even if we send troops, the other five countries will not help for this flimsy reason! Maybe they will cooperate with us The neighboring Chu State took the opportunity to unite with the Wei Dynasty to send troops to annex our Wu State. At that time, the Taiwei will not regret it!"

Taiwei Jiang Yang slapped his knees angrily after hearing this.

After hearing the prime minister's heartfelt words, the King of Wu also knew that this was not the time for rebellion, so he said: "So, let the prince Zhao Xian set off for the court today."

The Prince of Wu, Zhao Xian, entered the capital, and Zhao Hongyin, who is also the Prince, had to come forward to greet him, so as not to lose courtesy.

Zhao Hongyin was sitting in the beautiful carriage, holding a teacup with an inexplicable smile in his eyes.

After the morning court, Emperor Nian called Zhao Hongyin to a halt and gave him a few words of advice.The general idea is that he can neither lose courtesy nor lose the majesty of the royal family.

Zhao Hongyin sneered, Emperor Nian was planning to let him give the Crown Prince of Wu a disgrace.

But on this point, he and Nian Di agreed by coincidence.Although his hatred for Emperor Nian remained unchanged, they were generally the same in their attitudes towards the princes.

Even if Emperor Nian didn't specifically remind him, he would still promote the prestige of the Wei Dynasty for Prince Wu.

There were hundreds of people escorting the Prince of Wu's guards, and when they came, there were waves of sand.The yellow sand and dust, walking against the sun, made the people on the Jinling city gate try to squint their eyes to recognize them clearly.He went down and preached loudly: "The prince of Wu has arrived, open the city gate to welcome him!"

The thick city gate made a heavy sound, and suddenly opened from the inside.A team of hundreds of Prince Wu came in from the outside in an orderly manner. The people on the horse couldn't help but look at the imperial city. The horses under them swung their heads and snorted a few times.

After entering the inner side of the city gate, the goal of entering is the army lined up neatly.The general Wu Guo came to escort couldn't help but tense up, and couldn't help touching the saber at his waist.Soon he relaxed again, as the front line of troops dispersed to reveal a luxurious carriage drawn by nine horses.

Prince Wu Zhao Xian got off the carriage first, the general waved back, and everyone got off the horse.

Zhao Xian is fifteen years old this year, and his appearance is a little immature, but his delicacy can be seen from the corners of his slightly raised eyes.

He walked up to the general and snorted, "General Guo, who is sitting in the carriage? Why didn't you come down and salute the prince when you saw him?"

Guo Yan said in a low voice: "I don't know, I just see that his status is not fixed under His Highness, so please be patient."

Zhao Xian frowned and glared, he was always a very noble person in Wu country, how can he balance in his heart after leaving Wu country and entering the court but receiving such treatment?

Zhao Hongyin counted the time in his mind, seeing that there was some restlessness in Wu Guo's side, he slowly got off the carriage.

Guan Chi followed behind him, looking at Guo Yan, his eyes were cold.

Zhao Hongyin stood one meter away from Zhao Xian with a smile on his face, "Prince Xian has worked hard all the way."

Guo Yan recognized the clothes on his body, and whispered in Zhao Xian's ear, "It's the prince of the Wei Dynasty."

Compared with the prince of Wu, the prince of the Wei Dynasty is naturally not inferior. Zhao Xian knew it in his heart, and saluted reluctantly, saying: "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness."

After going back and forth, Zhao Hongyin could clearly see that the Crown Prince of Wu Kingdom was an arrogant person.Usually the more arrogant and indulgent people are, the more they have no city, Zhao Hongyin couldn't help laughing.

"Your Highness, the time has come." Yuan Xiao reminded Zhao Hongyin in a low voice.

Zhao Hongyin nodded slightly, raised his eyes and said to Zhao Xian and his party: "Your Majesty has set up a banquet in the palace. Now that the time has come, Prince Xian and Gu Tong will enter the palace. As for the general, let the entourage go with the generals. .”

Guan Chi stood up and nodded to Guo Yan.Guo Yan turned around and assembled the [-]-man team, leading them into Guan Chi's army.And Zhao Xian boarded the carriage with Zhao Hongyin.

Today, Prince Zhao Xian of the Kingdom of Wu entered the court, and Emperor Nian hosted a banquet for the whole court.Ru Guogong's mansion must be going to someone, and Xu Qin, who is entitled to a title, even tidied himself up and prepared to enter the palace for a banquet.

Button ran in from outside and sat down sullenly.

Xu You'an was holding the pen and ink with a smile in his eyes, seeing his angry look, he couldn't help but stop the pen and ask: "Why is this?"

"Unlucky!" Kou'er snorted, "I met You Da when I went out, and seeing his arrogant appearance, I thought it was someone who was going to the palace for a banquet.

he! "

You Da is an old man who serves Xu Qin. Now that Xu Qin is in power, his heart is alive. He has his eyes on the position of the governor of the Duke's Mansion, and he has trouble with Kouer and Director Xu everywhere.

But how does his identity compare with Manager Xu?Manager Xu's surname is Xu, which was bestowed by Mr. Xu himself.When the Duke was around, Director Xu became tough and even Xu Qin could take care of him.

After hearing this, Xu You'an knew that Kou'er was angered again, he couldn't help laughing and said: "You should have prepared for these things long ago, Manager Xu didn't agree with you.

He is angry, why do you bother with that old lunatic?Kou'er, you follow the young master and I will accomplish great things, don't just look at the few inches of land in front of you.

"

"Master, I understand..." Kou'er paused, "I just can't understand their behavior!"

Xu Youan shook his head, raised his pen and continued to draw on the paper.

It's all over once Kouer's anger is over.He approached Xu Youan and asked, "Master, what are you painting?"

Taking a closer look, Kou'er couldn't help but widen his eyes and gasped, "Isn't this the prince?"

It's fine if it's a normal portrait, but the prince in the painting is obviously just out of the bath... That charming and sexy appearance really doesn't resemble him.

Kou'er stared at Xu You'an sadly, this must be the young master's imagination.

Xu Youan's scalp was numb from his stare, so he had no choice but to push him away, "You can see the prince's face..." After a pause, Xu Youan looked at Kou'er with intriguing eyes, "If you let him know that you saw this Sub-painter, do you think the prince will kill people?,

"Hehehe..." Kou'er took a few steps back, waved his hand, "Master, draw slowly, Kou'er didn't see anything." After speaking, he ran away in a panic.

Xu Youan chuckled twice, ready to continue finishing the unfinished painting.But he didn't want Kou'er to poke his head out from behind the painting screen, and whispered: "Master, teach me how to paint when you have some free time. I also want to draw something like this for Yuanxiao." After speaking, her face turned red, and this time she ran away as if her butt was on fire. up.

Xu You'an couldn't laugh or cry.

He just wanted to draw the picture of Zhao Hongyin coming out of the bath that day... What exactly is this painting skill being regarded as?

However, Xu Youan always felt that it would not be a good thing as far as Wu Guo Crown Prince Zhao Xian's entry to the capital was concerned.And...how does he feel that Wu

He had heard the name of Crown Prince Zhao Xian somewhere before, but he was sure that he had never seen this Prince Wu in his previous life.

At this time in the previous life, he was forced to be imprisoned in the camp by his grandfather to get rid of those daughter's bad habits. It should be that he didn't even know about Prince Wu's entry into Beijing.

Xu Youan looked out of the window, the sun had gradually moved westward, and the originally bright light was now almost as orange.I just hope that Xu Qin can be smarter and nothing will happen at the banquet.

Speaking of which, Xu Qin's gang of cronies envied him very much.Although the dude showed a rich and powerful appearance, he looked lawless.But in the final analysis, they are still being disciplined by their father.Originally, Xu Qin was just like them, but now Xu Guogong is stationed in Youzhou far away, not to mention that the title falls to him, and Lao Tzu completes the duties assigned by the court for him.

envious.

But his group of cronies and friends are definitely not qualified to come to such a banquet in the palace, and other officials who are similar to Xu Qin's age look down on Xu Qin's character and disdain him to go with him.Only a few old ministers who used to have a good relationship with Xu Guo are still willing to take care of Xu Qin, but following them Xu Qin is a junior... Originally, Xu Qin was waiting for someone to curry favor with him, so he could only be a junior all the way

Fu low.

It really made him angry!
