Zhu Xuan stayed in Zhu Yunxi's palace for almost half a day.
In the afternoon, he left.
But when he continued walking outside, Zhu Xuan saw a very familiar person walking by and took a serious look. Isn't this Zhu Gaosui?
"Cousin Gao Sui."
Zhu Xuan shouted.
After hearing this, Zhu Gaosui, who was walking in front, looked back at Zhu Xuan and said in surprise: "Your Highness, why are you here?"
Zhu Xuan said: "I'm bored in the palace. Let's go out for a walk. Why is cousin Gao Sui outside alone?"
Zhu Gaosui raised the wine jar in his hand and said with a smile: "I came out to help my father get wine, but I didn't expect to meet His Highness."
Hearing him mention Zhu Di, Zhu Xuan thought for a while and said, "I haven't seen my fourth uncle for a long time. I just happened to go to his place for a walk. You won't welcome me, right?"
Zhu Gaosui was indeed very unwelcoming, but Zhu Xuan said so, and if they were unwelcome, then it was their fault. He shook his head and smiled: "How is this possible? Your Highness, please come with me."
Their family, except for Zhu Gaochi and Xu Miaoyun, are actually not very friendly to Zhu Xuan.
How do you think an illegitimate son is qualified to sit on the throne of the emperor's grandson?
However, Zhu Xuan is very powerful, has a new army under his command, and has ridiculously powerful weapons, which are not something they can compete with.
Lao Zhu was extremely doting on Zhu Xuan.
All factors combined, Zhu Xuan, the emperor's grandson, could not be more stable.
Zhu Xuan followed Zhu Gaosui back.
As soon as he entered the door, Zhu Di felt surprised.
"Greetings to Your Highness!"
Zhu Di is just a commoner and must be polite.
Even if they are not common people, other princes still need to salute politely in front of Zhu Xuan.
"Four uncle, you don't need to be polite."
Zhu Xuan said: "I am quite bored in the palace and can't help but go out for a walk. I won't disturb you, right?"
Zhu Di smiled, but the smile was a bit forced, as if he saw something that originally belonged to him being forcibly taken away by Zhu Xuan. He smiled and said: "Of course I won't disturb you. Your Highness can come whenever he wants, but I It’s relatively simple here and there’s nothing to entertain His Highness.”
Zhu Xuan said casually: "There's no need to entertain me, my fourth uncle can just be casual."
He is also a relatively casual person.
"Uncle Fourth, how are you doing recently?"
Zhu Xuan continued: "Would you like my nephew to arrange for someone to send you some daily necessities? By the way, how is the harvest of the fields you cultivate outside the city? I can also ask someone to send you some fertilizers."
Hearing these words, Zhu Di felt a very resistive impulse in his heart.
This sounds like a kind of charity to himself, and Zhu Di doesn't want it at all.
Xu Miaoyun knew that she couldn't be too rude in front of Zhu Xuan, so she quickly tugged on Zhu Di's sleeves.
"Thank you for the reward, Your Highness!"
Another smile appeared on Zhu Di's face, and he said with a wry smile: "I am living a good life now, and farming is good. The things at home are enough, and there is no need for Your Highness to spend any money."
Zhu Xuan said: "If your fourth uncle needs anything, just come to me and don't be polite to me."
Zhu Di continued to smile reluctantly: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I will definitely trouble Your Highness if I need it. As long as Your Highness doesn't think I'm too troublesome, that'll be fine."
After he finished speaking, he felt conflicted again.
Even if he, Zhu Di, starved to death and died outside, he would never ask Zhu Xuan, definitely not.
Zhu Xuan didn't understand how complicated his fourth uncle's mental activities were, but seeing his ugly expression, he must have been disgusted with himself. He might have cursed himself in his heart, so he smiled and said, "I won't bother you anymore until now." Let’s take a walk outside. However, Fourth Uncle will drink later, so don’t drink too much, as you have to go to the palace tonight.”
Zhu Di asked: "Can I enter the palace too?"
The New Year's Eve dinner was prepared by Zhu Yuanzhang and enjoyed it with his children and grandchildren, but Zhu Di had not received the relevant decree and thought that his father had completely ignored him, a commoner.
Zhu Xuan said: "Of course. Grandpa Huang will not pass the decree this year. You can just enter the palace directly. If the fourth uncle can't get in, you can have someone come to me. I will take the fourth uncle in then."
After hearing the first half of the sentence, Zhu Di felt a little balanced in his heart. It turned out that he would no longer send orders, but he felt uncomfortable hearing the following words.
Does this mean that he is begging Zhu Xuan to take him to the palace for a family reunion dinner?
Very shameful.
But Zhu Di did not dare to say these words, so he bowed and said: "Then please trouble your highness."
"Fourth uncle, you're welcome."
Zhu Xuan smiled slightly.
After saying that, Zhu Xuan left Zhu Di's mansion.
It seems too early to go back now.
But not long after he went out, by coincidence, he met someone he knew.
"Greetings to Your Highness!"
Ji Wenjing said respectfully.
Zhu Xuan said: "Mr. Ji is very free today!"
Ji Wenjing did not live in the factory. As a staff member of the emperor's grandson, he had already built a house in the city. He said with a smile: "Your Highness has not officially become the emperor's grandson. As a staff member, I have no official position, so of course I am free! Minister It seems that Your Highness is quite free, otherwise he wouldn’t be walking around outside, haha..."
Zhu Xuan shrugged and said: "I am quite free, but the palace is very busy, but their busy work seems to have nothing to do with me. It's just a good time to meet Mr. Ji. I want to talk to you about other things. "
Ji Wenjing smiled and said: "Then please, Your Highness, come and sit at my house."
Together they arrived at Ji Wenjing's home.
Ji Wenjing prepared the wine and some side dishes to go with the wine, but the weather was very cold, so he could only heat these things by the stove.
Zhu Xuan doesn't plan to drink, but it's okay to eat some side dishes.
"I have something that I would like to ask Mr. Ji to analyze."
Zhu Xuan briefly talked about Zhu Gaosui's matter. This was the first time he told it to the outside world, and asked, "What do you think, Mr. Ji?"
This is about why Zhu Gaosui could return to Beijing in place of Zhu Gaochi to wish Grandpa Huang a birthday.
On the surface, he didn't care much about this matter, but he kept it in his heart. He felt that something might have happened in Beiping, but he couldn't tell what happened for the time being.
Ji Wenjing said: "If one thing is often on my mind, or even thinks there is a problem, but cannot find the answer, there is usually a problem."
"Mr. Ji is saying that something must have happened in Beiping?"
Zhu Xuan said again: "How about Mr. Ji tell me the two hexagrams?"
Ji Wenjing shook his head and smiled: "Didn't Your Highness say that I am a magic stick? Now, I am really a magic stick. Such a small thing, even a person with great yin and yang skills cannot count."
They predict big things.
It's a secret.
Counting such trivial matters as Zhu Gaosui, Ji Wenjing really didn't know where to start.
Zhu Xuan also smiled and said: "He is indeed a magic stick."
"Sometimes, even though I am a magician, I am often wrong about certain things."
Ji Wenjing laughed and said: "Don't worry, Your Highness! Even if something happens, they are under your hands. In fact, it is nothing more than that. It will be easy for Your Highness to deal with those feudal kings."
Whether he wants to clean it up or not depends on Zhu Xuan's future wishes.
