The daily life of the great grandson of Ming Dynasty

Zhu Gaochi sat up, and suddenly sighed sadly: "Oh..."

Zhang Mingzhen put down the teacup in her hand, and asked with concern: "His Royal Highness, what's the matter with you?"

Zhu Gaochi looked up at Zhang Mingzhen, his expression was very frightened.

Zhang Mingzhen was frightened by his expression, and asked worriedly: "Your Highness, what's wrong with you, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing Zhang Mingzhen's panic-stricken appearance, Zhu Gaochi quickly reached out to hold her hand, patted the back of her hand lightly, and comforted her: "I'm fine, and I'm not uncomfortable at all. I just thought of a terrible thing. matter."

Upon hearing the terrifying thing, Zhang Mingzhen's heart tightened, and she asked, "What terrible thing?"

"Mingzhen, do you still remember the meals in the palace?"

"Meals in the palace?" Zhang Mingzhen didn't understand Zhu Gaochi's meaning for a while, and asked with a puzzled face, "His Royal Highness, what happened to the meals in the palace?"

"Have you forgotten?" Zhu Gaochi couldn't believe that Zhang Mingzhen had forgotten about it, "The food in the palace is terrible."

Zhang Mingzhen: "..." She thought it was something scary, but she didn't expect His Royal Highness to say that the food in the palace was unpalatable.

"Did you really forget?" Zhu Gaochi held Zhang Mingzhen's hand tightly, and said with a very solemn expression, "Back then, you and I entered the palace to attend a palace banquet, and you almost vomited out a piece of chicken, did you forget Yet?"

It was good that Zhu Gaochi didn't mention it, but as soon as Zhang Mingzhen was mentioned, he thought of it, and couldn't help but feel sick.

"I haven't forgotten." At that time, she had just married His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but at that time she was the Crown Princess, and she entered the palace to attend the palace banquet. She originally thought that the meal at the royal palace banquet would be very delicious, but unexpectedly it was very unpalatable.

"The food in the palace has always been unpalatable, my God." When Zhu Gaochi thought that he was about to eat the unpalatable palace food again, and he would have to eat it for decades, he suddenly felt that he had nothing to love, and suddenly had a feeling An impulse not to be a prince. "When I enter the palace, I will definitely lose weight."

Zhang Mingzhen was dumbfounded by Zhu Gaochi's exaggerated appearance: "Your Highness, it's not like this?"

"As for, very as for." The meal in the palace is a nightmare for Zhu Gaochi, "The meal in the palace is really unpalatable." For Zhu Gaochi who loves food, the meal in the palace is no different from pig food.

"His Royal Highness, the East Palace has its own small kitchen. You can find some good cooks to cook meals." Zhang Mingzhen looked at Zhu Gaochi's sky-falling expression, and comforted him softly, "Besides, I will also go down kitchen."

Hearing what Zhang Mingzhen said, Zhu Gaochi felt better.

"I'm afraid that when I find a cook to make meals, the ministers will participate in the performance, or my second brother will say it. Some ministers said before that don't be greedy for appetite. This is why the meals in the palace have always been bad."

Zhang Mingzhen suddenly thought of his son: "His Royal Highness, Zhanji likes to eat food as much as you do. Do you think he can bear the meals in the palace?"

This sentence reminded Zhu Gaochi, his eyes lit up immediately: "Zhanji's mouth is pickier than mine, he must not be able to bear the meals in the palace."

"Zhanji has been in the palace for some time, you said he had a bad meal, what would he do?"

Thinking of his son's temper, Zhu Gaochi immediately replaced the worry on his face with a smile: "Zhanji will definitely be angry, and with his temper, he will definitely scold the royal chef in the palace."

"His Royal Highness, you just said that Zhanji's complexion looks very good. If he didn't eat something delicious, do you think his little face would still be flushed?" Zhang Mingzhen's mind turned quickly, "I'm afraid The imperial kitchen in the palace has already been taken care of by Zhan Ji, so don’t worry about the bad food.” Zhan Ji is even more particular about eating than His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Zhu Gaochi was full of joy: "Hahahaha, that's great, Zhanji is indeed my good son." The food in the palace is not good, and he can't say anything as a prince, otherwise he will definitely be said to be greedy for his appetite.However, Zhanji said it was fine, after all, he was still young.Furthermore, his father had always doted on him. "I can finally rest assured."

Zhang Mingzhen gave Zhu Gaochi a reproachful look: "Your Highness, if you let others know that you are worried about the bad food in the palace, you will be laughed at."

Zhu Gaochi smiled embarrassingly: "You also know that I don't have any hobbies, but I like eating food."

Zhang Mingzhen looked at Zhu Gaochi's obese figure, and sighed slightly: "I hope that the food in the palace is not delicious, so that you can lose weight, Your Highness, so that you won't be accused by those people."

Zhu Gaochi waved his hands and said with a smile: "I would rather be so fat all the time than not be able to eat delicious food." Then, he fell back on the carriage again, lying in a large font, "As the prince, I will The responsibility on my shoulders is heavy, I can’t go out of the palace, I can’t play casually, I can only eat delicious food to comfort my heart.” If possible, he would rather be a tourist and taste delicious food everywhere, but unfortunately his dream can’t be realized .

"His Royal Highness, if your father hears your words, he will scold you again." Zhang Mingzhen did not object to Zhu Gaochi eating delicious food, but she was worried about his health.

"Just scold me, since I was a child, I have been scolded less often." However, since Zhanji was born, the number of times he was scolded has decreased.

Zhang Mingzhen shook her head helplessly and said nothing more.

"I'm a little hungry, and I don't know if there is any snack." Before getting off the boat, Zhu Gaochi had a snack.It wasn't long before he was hungry.

"It's almost time to get to the palace, Your Highness, please bear with it for a while."

"I don't know how our palace is cleaned up?"

"With Zhanji here, our palace will definitely not be bad." Although the son is not too close to them, he always defends them everywhere.

Zhu Gaochi turned over, lay on his side on the carriage, faced Zhang Mingzhen, and said with a smile: "Mingzhen, you really gave birth to a good son for me."

"His Royal Highness, you have said this many times." Zhang Mingzhen said so, but she enjoyed it very much in her heart.

The two of them chatted without saying a word, and soon arrived in the palace.

The eunuch driving directly sent Zhu Gaochi and the others to the East Palace.

Zhu Di took Empress Xu directly to Kunning Palace.

As for Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaosui's wives, they have already been taken back to the palace.They will enter the palace again at the dinner party.

The Kunning Palace was re-arranged, all decorated according to Empress Xu's preferences.On the basis of the original splendor, there are a few more novelties.

Empress Xu could feel Zhu Di's intentions from the decoration of every plant and tree in Kunning Palace.

"Queen, do you like it?"

"I like it, I like it so much." Empress Xu said with a moved expression, "Your Majesty took the trouble."

"As long as you like it."

Zhu Di continued to take Empress Xu to visit the Kunning Palace, and Zhu Zhanji followed behind them.

After strolling around for a while, Zhu Di took Empress Xu to rest.

"Queen, if you are not satisfied with anything, ask someone to rearrange it."

"Your Majesty, the concubine is very satisfied, and there is no need to rearrange it." Empress Xu looked at Zhu Zhanji who was sitting beside him eating snacks silently, and asked, "Which palace does Zhanji live in?"

"Grandmother, of course I will continue to live with you." Zhu Zhanji said, "My room is in the side hall, and I have tidied it up. However, I live with Grandpa Huang recently."

Zhu Di said: "Queen, Zhanji will still live with you and be taken care of by you."

Empress Xu couldn't wish for it: "Okay, it's good to have Zhanji with me." Empress Xu thought that after entering the palace, Zhu Di would let Zhu Zhanji return to Zhu Gaochi and the others.

"Grandmother, don't worry, I will always be with you." Zhu Zhanji said very filially.

"The emperor's grandmother knew that Zhanji was the most filial."

Zhu Zhanji ate his snacks, stood up and clapped his hands and said, "Grandpa Huang, you must have a lot to say to Grandma Huang, so I won't bother you, I'll go see Daddy and the others."

Zhu Di, who was narrowed down by his grandson, waved to him angrily: "Let's go quickly."

When Zhu Zhanji heard this, he deliberately put on a sad look: "Oh, I knew that the emperor's grandmother was coming, and the emperor's grandfather despised me."

Empress Xu laughed and said, "Your grandpa will not dislike you if anyone dislikes you." Then, she reached out and poked Zhu Zhanji's forehead, "Go and see your father and the others."

"Then I'll go." Zhu Zhanji bowed to Zhu Di and Empress Xu, and then ran away bouncing around.

Seeing that his grandson was not walking well, Zhu Di hurriedly told him, "Walk well, don't fall."

Zhu Zhanji didn't look back, and waved his hand at Zhu Di.

Empress Xu said helplessly and dotingly: "This child..."

Next, Zhu Di and Empress Xu talked about many things.

Zhu Zhanji bounced all the way to the East Palace, and before he entered, his voice came first.

"Father, mother, I'm here to see you."

Hearing his son's voice, Zhu Gaochi immediately stood up to pick him up.

Zhu Zhanji saw Zhu Gaochi, ran towards him, and hit his daddy's belly hard.

When he was in Beiping Mansion before, he liked to hit his father's soft belly.

Zhu Gaochi picked up Zhu Zhanji, kissed him hard, and then immediately put him down.

Zhu Zhanji, who is almost four years old, has not only grown up a lot, but also gained a lot of weight.Zhu Gaochi couldn't hold him anymore after holding him for a while.

Zhu Zhanji raised his hand and patted his father's big belly: "Daddy, you have gained weight again." Now his father can't see his feet at all.

Zhu Gaochi rubbed his son's little head: "You have grown a lot taller, and of course you are also beautiful." He knew that his son liked to hear that he was good-looking.

"Zhanji, come, let mother have a look."

Zhu Zhanji ran to Zhang Mingzhen obediently, and said sweetly, "Mother, I miss you."

"Mother misses you too." Zhang Mingzhen looked at his son carefully, and seeing his son in high spirits, he knew that he had a good time, so he felt relieved. "Zhanji, do you have the habit of living in the palace, and the habit of eating?"

"I was not used to it at first, but now I am used to it."

"Zhanji, are you used to the meals in the palace?"

Hearing what Zhu Gaochi said, Zhu Zhanji complained to him about the meals in the palace.

Seeing that his son had really rectified the meals in the palace, Zhu Gaochi was completely relieved.

"Zhanji, before your father entered the palace, he was still worried that the food in the palace was not good."

"Zhanji, you are really a good son of Daddy."

Zhu Zhanji reached out and patted Zhu Gaochi's big belly and said with a smile, "Dad, don't worry, I will never let the meals in the palace abuse our father and son."

Zhu Gaochi couldn't hold back, and kissed his son's little face forcefully.

"Good son."

Looking at the delicious father and son, Zhang Mingzhen's face was full of helplessness and amused.

"Father, mother, nothing happened when you came here, right?"

"We are all fine, nothing happened along the way." Zhu Gaochi asked, "Tell Dad what happened during this period."

"That's too much, I'll tell you later, you should take a bath and change your clothes now, and then rest." Zhu Zhanji said very intimately, "There will be a palace banquet tonight."

"Our father and son haven't bathed together for a long time, do you want to take a bath with Dad?"

"Okay." Zhu Zhanji took Zhu Gaochi's big hand and shook it gently, "Father and son, let's go."

"Father and son bath, hahahahaha..."

Zhang Mingzhen looked at Zhu Gaochi with some envy. She also wanted to take a bath with Zhanji, but the child said that men and women were different, and he didn't want to take a bath with her, nor did he want to take a bath with his imperial grandmother.

The father and son fought in the bathtub for a while, and then they got down to business.

"What did you say, Brother Yunwen is not dead?" Zhu Gaochi exclaimed in a low voice.

"Well, he didn't die, and it is very likely that he became a monk in Huangjue Temple."

"This is how the same thing?"

Zhu Zhanji told Zhu Gaochi again what he had guessed to Zhu Di before.

After hearing this, Zhu Gaochi felt that his son was right.

"You say so, it is very likely that you are in Huangjue Temple." Zhu Gaochi asked, "What is your grandpa going to do?"

"I told Grandpa Huang, let the scoundrel Uncle Yunwen die in the face, don't bring him back, let him stay in Huangjue Temple." Zhu Zhanji said, "If the scoundrel Uncle Yunwen is sensible, Mr. If he stays honestly in Huangjue Temple and becomes a monk, Grandpa Huang will not do anything to him. If he wants to make a comeback, Grandpa Huang will make him die from a fake death."

Zhu Gaochi sighed: "I hope Brother Yunwen won't do anything."

"By the way, Daddy, Second Uncle and Third Uncle want to manage the Imperial Army."

"What, your grandfather agreed?" Zhu Gaochi asked nervously.

"Grandpa Huang originally wanted to agree, but I disturbed it." Zhu Zhanji gave his father a reassuring look, "Daddy, with me here, I will not let the second and third uncles succeed in their scheme. "

Zhu Gaochi was instantly relieved: "Why did you disturb the pornography?"

"I just said that the second uncle's brain is not good..."

After Zhu Gaochi listened, he sympathized with Zhu Gaoxu in his heart.

"Nice job."

"Second Uncle and Third Uncle want to rely on the capital and not go to their fiefdom."

"Of course they don't want to go to fiefdom." Zhu Gaochi sneered, "If I'm right, your second uncle and third uncle have been trying to win people over."

Zhu Zhanji nodded lightly: "Well, the second and third uncles are very close to the generals, please invite Qiu Fu and the others to drink together."

Zhu Gaochi was not surprised at all: "Your second uncle and the others have been fighting with your emperor's grandfather all these years, and they are very familiar with your emperor's grandfather's subordinates. It is not surprising that he wants to win them over. It is normal for your emperor's grandfather to support your second uncle." .”

"Daddy, it's useless for Second Uncle and the others to woo Qiu Fu and the others." Zhu Zhanji said with a firm face, "As long as Zhang Yu and Zhu Neng are not wooed by Second Uncle and the others, Qiu Fu and the others are nothing to be afraid of."

"That's true." In Zhu Di's mind, the most important generals were Zhang Yu and Zhu Neng.The others are inferior to Zhang Yu and the others. "Your second uncle and the others have also recruited civil servants, right?"

"I pulled it, but it didn't work." Zhu Zhanji thought of something, and sneered, "Second Uncle looked down on Wen Chen, I'm afraid that when he bought Wen Chen, he assumed a charity attitude, how could Wen Chen be bought by him."

Zhu Gaochi smiled lightly and said, "You know your second uncle well."

"Second uncle is too stupid, everything is written on his face." Zhu Zhanji said mockingly, "However, he feels very good about himself and thinks that he has made great contributions. I think this country should belong to him."

"Your second uncle is very smart in fighting." Zhu Gaochi said very objectively, "He is the bravest of the three of us, otherwise your grandpa would not like him so much."

"Second uncle can fight wars, but he can't manage the Daming country." Zhu Zhanji frowned and said, "If he is really allowed to manage the Daming country, it will definitely make life difficult for the people."

Zhu Gaochi agreed with Zhu Zhanji's words: "Your second uncle doesn't have a heart of benevolence and righteousness. If he becomes the emperor, he will really make people miserable."

"The third uncle is the same. The third uncle is the most insidious. He wants you to fight with the second uncle so that both sides will suffer. He can reap the benefits of the fisherman."

"Your third uncle..."

"However, don't worry, daddy, after Grandpa Huang's enthronement ceremony is over, I will have a way for Grandpa Huang to drive them back to the fief."

Zhu Gaochi asked curiously: "What way?"

Zhu Zhanji made a fool of himself on purpose: "You will know when the time comes."

"If you can drive your second uncle and third uncle back to the fief, Daddy will give you gold bars."

As soon as he heard the gold bars, Zhu Zhanji's eyes shone brightly.

"keep your word."

"keep your word."

The father and son did not stay in the bath any longer, but got up and got dressed.

After bathing, the two went to the study and continued talking about business.

Don't look at Zhu Zhanji who is not qualified to go to court at a young age, but he knows what happened in the court very well.He told Zhu Gaochi all the information he knew.

After hearing this, Zhu Gaochi sighed in his heart countless times, it is great to have a son who is so intelligent.Not only can it relieve his father's worries, but it can also help him as a father.

At the beginning of Youshi, Zhu Zhanji followed Zhu Gaochi and the others to attend the palace banquet.

It is a very important event for the empress and the prince to return to the palace, so naturally a palace banquet will be held to celebrate.

When Zhu Di saw Zhu Zhanji, he waved to him. Zhu Zhanji walked over and sat between him and Empress Xu.

After a while, the palace banquet officially began.

The ministers first welcomed the empress and the prince back to the palace, and then flattered Empress Xu and Zhu Gaochi.

Zhu Gaochi is too fat, and the ministers can't praise his appearance, they can only praise his interior.

In fact, some old ministers knew Zhu Gaochi and had a little understanding of him.

When Zhu Yuanzhang was alive, he once boasted that Zhu Gaochi had a heart of benevolence and righteousness in front of civil and military officials.

The veterans spoke out about this matter, and praised Zhu Gaochi for being affirmed by Emperor Tai|Zu.

Seeing that the officials were all praising Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Gaoxu was very disdainful.

"Brother, I haven't seen you for a while, why are you gaining weight again?" Zhu Gaoxu pretended to be concerned, "Brother, your body is not very good, you can't keep getting fat, otherwise the father and mother will still lose weight." There are brothers who will be worried."

Zhu Gaosui also jokingly said: "It seems that the eldest brother ate well and slept well on this journey."

Zhu Gaochi couldn't hear that the two younger brothers were mocking him, but he pretended not to understand.

"Thank you two brothers for your concern."

Sure enough, Zhu Di frowned dissatisfiedly after hearing Zhu Gaoxu's words.

Zhu Zhanji took a deep look at Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui, and then a smirk flashed across his eyes: "Grandfather, I have an idea."

Zhu Di asked, "What idea?"

"It's not interesting for us to eat and drink, it's better to play other things."

"what do you want to play?"

"Let's play a simple game, how about beating the drums and passing the flowers. Whoever gets the flowers will say a poem about the moon?"

Empress Xu smiled and said, "That's a good idea."

Naturally, Zhu Di would not object: "Okay, let's play drumming and passing flowers."

"Grandpa Huang must have a lottery, and of course there must be a punishment." Zhu Zhanji said with a smile, "The lottery is gold, and the punishment is a fine bar."

Zhu Di looked at the ministers in the audience, and asked, "What do you think, dear friends?"

The ministers expressed that the idea was good and they were willing to make a fool of themselves.

Zhu Di asked Ma Sanbao to play the drums.

The game was proposed by Zhu Zhanji, so it naturally started from him.

Before Ma Sanbao went to play the drums, Zhu Zhanji gave him a veiled look, and Ma Sanbao immediately understood.

"Grandpa, I'm the youngest, so I'll talk first."

"Okay, you talk first."

Zhu Zhanji opened his mouth and came: "When will the bright moon come? Ask the blue sky for wine." After finishing speaking, he asked Ma Sanbao to beat the drum, and he passed the flowers in his hand.

The drum sounded, and the flowers slowly passed down to Zhu Gaochi's hands, and the drum stopped.

"Then I also said that the water tune song head, people have sorrows and joys, and the moon has cloudy and sunny waxes and wanes." After finishing speaking, the flowers continued to pass on.

When it reached Yang Shiqi's hands, the drumbeat stopped: "When will the moon come on a sunny day? I will stop drinking today and ask..." This line comes from Li Bai's "Ask the Moon with Wine".

The drumming and passing of flowers continued, and it was passed to Zhu Di: "Raise a glass to invite the bright moon, and the shadows will form three people." From Li Bai's "Four Poems of Drinking Alone under the Moon".

Afterwards, it was Empress Xu's turn: "People in the deep forest don't know, but the bright moon comes to see each other." From Wang Wei's "Bamboo Li Pavilion".

Soon it was Zhu Gaoxu's turn. He took the flowers and hesitated for a while before speaking the poem.It was Webster who was sitting next to him who told him.

This round, he survived without any risk.After a while, it was his turn again.

Just when Webster was about to tell him, Zhu Zhanji said, "Grandpa, the second uncle cheated."

"Cheating?"

"The second aunt secretly told the second uncle's poems." Zhu Zhanji pointed to Zhu Gaoxu and Webster and said, "They cheated."

Being exposed by Zhu Zhanji on the spot, Webster looked a little embarrassed. She quickly stood up and saluted Zhu Di and Empress Xu: "Father, mother, daughter-in-law..."

"I knew that the second uncle couldn't tell." Zhu Zhanji's voice was not loud, but it could be heard by everyone in the audience, "Second uncle didn't even know about the emperor's summoning, and Se Boru also said "" There is no such line in the Analects, how can he say a poem."

The civil servants lowered their heads and suppressed a smile.

Many generals were bewildered and did not understand what Zhu Zhanji was talking about.

Zhu Gaoxu naturally noticed the ridicule of the civil servants, which made his face flush instantly, and he glared at Zhu Zhanji angrily: "Zhu Zhanji!"

"Second Uncle, I'm not wrong." Zhu Zhanji said, shaking his head, and said to Zhu Gaoxu earnestly, "Second Uncle, I told you to read more books, but you didn't listen. Second aunt help, do you think you are ashamed?"

Zhu Gaochi and Zhang Mingzhen looked at each other, then both lowered their heads and smiled silently.

When Zhu Zhanji proposed to play the game of drumming and passing flowers, Zhu Gaochi knew that he wanted to punish Zhu Gaoxu.

Every time Zhu Gaoxu made Zhu Gaochi look bad in public, Zhu Zhanji would take revenge immediately.

Zhu Gaoxu wanted to say something else, but Zhu Zhanji rushed ahead of him and said: "The emperor's grandpa, emperor's grandmother, second uncle and second aunt cheated. It's better not to take them to play. However, they cheated just now, and they will be punished. Zhu Zhanji looked at Zhu Gaoxu and said, "Second Aunt is pregnant and should not drink, so let Second Uncle be alone and punish him with nine glasses of wine."

Zhu Di nodded slightly, then looked at Zhu Gaoxu: "Second brother, I'll punish you with nine drinks."

Zhu Gaoxu dared not speak out, so he obediently punished him with nine glasses of wine.

The following drumming and passing flowers directly passed Zhu Gaoxu and his wife.

Although Zhu Gaoxu didn't want to play this game of drumming and passing flowers, he felt ashamed to be expelled from the game.

Zhu Zhanji, this little bastard! ! !

The drumming and flower passing continued, and it was Zhu Gaosui's turn for several rounds, but he survived safely.

Zhu Zhanji felt that the poems related to the moon were too simple and made it more difficult.The verses must not only be related to the moon, but also rhyme.It rhymes with moon or bright.

Zhu Gaosui has read more books than Zhu Gaoxu, and cannot be compared with Zhu Gaochi.When the difficulty was increased, he couldn't speak up and was fined several times.

Zhu Di and Empress Xu stopped playing for a long time, but watched Zhu Zhanji play with the ministers.

After playing for many rounds, Zhu Gaochi did not lose a single game.

At this time, the ministers found that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was a very talented person.

After all, Zhu Zhanji is still young and has not read many books. He is currently no better than his father.After playing for more than ten rounds, he lost. He was too young to drink, so Zhu Di drank for him.

Although Zhu Zhanji played for more than a dozen rounds, the ministers saw his intelligence.You must know that he is only over three years old, and he has read a lot of books and poems by heart.

At the end of the game, only Zhu Gaochi, Yang Shiqi and Xie Jin were left.

Yang Shiqi and the others were very smart, they lost after a few rounds, and Zhu Gaochi won in the end.

Zhu Di rewarded him with 100 taels of gold on the spot.

Although it is gold, it is also a reward.

Zhu Di and Empress Xu took Zhu Zhanji and left, leaving the venue to Zhu Gaochi and the ministers.

Seeing that Zhu Di had left, Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui also left.

Zhu Gaochi was stayed by the ministers to discuss the Four Books and Five Classics and poems and songs with the civil servants.

Zhang Yu, Zhu Neng and the others waited for Zhu Gaoxu and the others to leave for half an hour before they got up and left.

"I said, Lao Zhang, you shouldn't be hiding from His Highness the King of Han and the others like this."

"Do you want to be invited to drink by His Royal Highness?" Zhang Yu said expressionlessly, "I don't want to have anything to do with His Highness and the others."

Zhu Neng understood what Zhang Yu meant, "It's too obvious that we are hiding from His Highness the King of Han."

"It has to be obvious, so that His Royal Highness will give up." Zhang Yu said with a serious face, "I don't want to be suspected by His Majesty."

"I don't want to either."

"Then keep hiding."

"However, Qiu Fu and the others..."

"Follow them. Your Majesty will turn a blind eye now, but it won't be so after a while." Zhang Yu emphasized, "Our allegiance is to Your Majesty, not any prince."

"It's natural." Zhu Neng thought of the game of drumming and passing flowers just now, and frowned slightly, "Our military generals are all rough, not to mention poetry and songs, but they don't even know a few big characters. Your Highness is not playing the game of drumming and passing flowers to embarrass us. ?"

"Your Highness is not embarrassing us, but His Highness King Han and King Zhao." Zhang Yu said meaningfully, "Your Highness is mainly to help His Highness show his face, and you haven't seen any changes in the attitude of civil servants towards His Highness. Yet?"

"Is there?" Zhu Neng, a big and rough man, didn't notice.

"At the pier today, how did the ministers react when they saw His Highness the Crown Prince?"

Zhu Neng thought about it: "I'm disappointed."

"Because His Royal Highness is so beautiful, the ministers thought that His Highness the Crown Prince was also a fairy, but His Royal Highness was not only not, but also obese, which made the ministers very disappointed with him."

"It is."

"In the game of beating drums and passing flowers just now, His Highness the Crown Prince performed very well. He never lost a single game. It let the ministers see the profound knowledge of His Highness the Crown Prince, and also let the ministers understand that His Highness the Crown Prince is good at writing."

Hearing this, Zhu Neng understood Zhang Yu's meaning, and said with a look of surprise: "Your Highness is deliberately showing the talent of His Highness the Crown Prince?"

Zhang Yu nodded slightly: "That's right, Your Highness wants to let the ministers know that His Highness is well-read and knowledgeable."

Zhu Neng was startled: "This... Your Highness is too powerful."

"Your Highness also humiliated His Highness Han by the way, and let the ministers know that His Highness is a reckless man and an ignorant idiot." Zhang Yu said with a half-smile, "What do you think those civil servants think of His Highness?"

"Naturally I look down on His Highness the King of Han." Zhu Neng thought of those civil servants, and said with a bit of displeasure on his face, "Those civil servants look down on us military generals the most."

"I said before that fighting depends on generals, and governing a country depends on civil servants." Zhang Yu smiled lightly, "Your Highness's move is so powerful, it completely cut off the way His Royal Highness wanted to win over civil servants."

"Old Zhang, this is your conjecture. How could your highness think so much at such a young age?"

Zhang Yu glanced at Zhu Neng with a disbelieving expression on his face: "Zhu Neng, don't think that your highness doesn't understand anything when he is young. On the contrary, his highness is so talented that he understands everything. Otherwise, why do you think your majesty loves him so much? Dragon?"

Zhu Neng was stunned, and it took a while before he came back to his senses: "Then...Your Highness is too smart."

"Your Highness's intelligence is probably beyond your imagination."

Zhu Neng said with emotion: "Your Highness is indeed not a human being."

"Zhu Neng, don't make your Highness an enemy, otherwise you may not even know how you died."

Zhu Neng glared at Zhang Yu: "How could I be an enemy of your Highness?" It was too late for him to like His Highness.

"I'm afraid that you will be deceived by His Royal Highness King Han and King Zhao, and run to fight against His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Get out, I'm not that stupid." Although he is a big bastard, he is not a fool.

"His Highness King Han and His Highness King Zhao want to fight His Highness the Crown Prince, it's really..." Zhang Yu smiled coldly. "Zhu Neng, the capital will not be peaceful in the future."

"Old Zhang, the capital has never been peaceful." No matter when it is, the capital will never be peaceful.

"You're right." Zhang Yu teased Zhu Neng, "I didn't expect you to be able to speak the truth sometimes."

"Old Zhang, are you kidding me?"

"I'm praising you."

"I believe you are a ghost." Zhu Neng is not so easy to deceive, "Old Zhang, you bastard, don't run away."

After Zhang Yu and the others left for a while, the palace banquet ended, and the ministers left the palace one after another.

Yang Shiqi, Yang Rong and Xie Jin were sitting in a carriage.

"His Royal Highness is really different."

Xie Jin's words were rather blunt: "I saw His Highness the Crown Prince on the pier today, and thought he was a..." At this point, he didn't go any further.Afterwards, he changed his words again, "Sure enough, people can't be judged by their appearance."

Yang Rong said: "His Royal Highness is approachable, unlike His Royal Highness, who are arrogant."

Yang Shiqi said: "From the conversation of His Highness the Crown Prince, it can be seen that His Highness the Crown Prince is a benevolent person."

Xie Jin thought of His Highness the King of Han and the others, and said coldly: "His Highness the King of Han has made great military exploits by himself, and he is very arrogant."

"Compared to His Royal Highness King Han and King Zhao, His Royal Highness the Prince is better."

"Although His Highness the Crown Prince is not like His Highness the King of Han, who did meritorious service on the battlefield, I heard that he manages Beiping Mansion very well." Yang Shiqi said, "The people in Beiping Mansion love him very much."

Yang Rong suddenly asked: "Both brothers, did the game at the banquet just now be played on purpose by His Royal Highness?"

Both Yang Shiqi and Xie Jin smiled: "Of course it was on purpose."

Yang Rong nodded and said, "Sure enough."

Yang Shiqi said with a smile: "Your Highness proposed to play the game of beating drums and passing flowers, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone. Let us know the talent of His Highness the Crown Prince, and let us understand that His Highness is an ignorant idiot."

Yang Rongyan said: "The most important thing is to let us change our views on His Highness the Crown Prince."

"Exactly." Yang Shiqi said with a deep expression on his face, "Your Highness is really smart."

"Brother Shiqi, you have to teach your Highness well in the future."

At this time, Zhu Gaochi was drinking hangover soup with a smile on his face.In fact, he didn't drink much, but Zhang Mingzhen still made him drink a bowl of hangover soup.

"I, Zhu Gaochi, had the luck of eight lifetimes to give birth to such a good son as Zhanji."

Zhang Mingzhen understood what Zhu Gaochi was talking about, "Do you think Zhanji has already thought about it?"

"If the second brother didn't say those things to me, Zhan Ji wouldn't make things difficult for him." Zhu Gaochi was very pleased and touched that his son defended him, "Listen to what he said about the second brother..."

Zhang Mingzhen couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing: "Zhanji is really good at cursing, and the face of the second brother who scolded is very wonderful."

"Second brother is probably very angry after losing such a big face in front of all the soldiers and ministers."

Thinking of Zhu Gaoxu's temper, Zhang Mingzhen couldn't help feeling a little worried: "Second brother won't do anything to Zhanji, right?"

"If the second brother does something to Zhan Ji, father will never spare him." Zhu Gaochi comforted Zhang Mingzhen and said, "The second brother dare not do anything to Zhan Ji."

"I hope he really doesn't dare."

"There is still mother." Zhu Gaochi said, "Second brother is most afraid of mother, and mother protects Zhanji, so he dare not do anything to Zhanji."

Hearing this, Zhang Mingzhen felt a lot more relieved: "With my mother here, the second and third brothers have to be more honest."

"Tonight is really fun. Tomorrow I will give Zhanji the 100 taels of gold that my father rewarded." Zhu Gaochi laughed, "Zhanji will definitely like it very much."

"Zenji will be very happy."

At this moment, Zhu Zhanji lives in the side hall of Kunning Palace.

It is impossible for him to live with Zhu Di all the time.Now that Empress Xu is here, of course he wants to live with Empress Xu.

Zhu Zhanji has already taken a bath, sitting on the bed and playing with the kitten he picked up today.

He took a cat teasing stick to play with Heiyu.After Heiyu ate and drank enough, he became very lively.

Back in the palace in the afternoon, Wang Zhong took the black jade to take a bath and dewormed it.

After it is washed, it becomes even more lovely.

After playing with Heiyu for a while, Zhu Zhanji went to read on the couch.Hei Yu followed him closely, obediently lying on his lap.

When it was Haishi, Zhu Zhanji hugged Heiyu and went back to bed to sleep.

Today Chen Wu kept vigil, and he sat beside Zhu Zhanji's bed.

When it was midnight, he heard the sound of the door opening, woke up suddenly, and looked at the door vigilantly.Seeing that it was the emperor, he quickly knelt down and saluted.

Zhu Di walked to Zhu Zhanji's bed and saw him sleeping with the kitten face to face, his eyes became gentle involuntarily.

He stretched out his hand to pull the quilt for Zhu Zhanji, and tucked the corners of the quilt for him.
