"Is there really such a person?"
Zhu Ming also followed Zhu Yuanzhang's wishes and asked innocently.
As for the nautical chart that Ender gave him, he didn't say anything about it.
In the future, he will become a prince, which will also be a bargaining chip for him to negotiate with Zhu Laosi.
"Grandpa Huang, where should we go next?"
Zhu Ming looked at Zhu Yuanzhang. He had probably finished shopping in the market and it was time for Zhu Yuanzhang to go back.
"Let's go to your Uncle Xu's house."
Zhu Yuanzhang just laughed again, almost rested, and started walking again holding Zhu Ming's hand.
Uncle Xu, Xu Da?
Zhu Ming followed Zhu Yuanzhang and was stunned again when he heard the name of Uncle Xu.
"Oh, you probably haven't seen him much."
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Ming's confused look and then reacted.
Zhu Ming was still young and had been staying in the palace, so he didn't know much about Uncle Xu.
"He is your grandfather's brother."
Zhu Yuanzhang's tone was full of vicissitudes of life, as if he was recalling the past again.
Some of the people who followed him to conquer the world have now left, and some have been killed by him.
Among the brothers brought up by the rebel army, these are the only ones who can accompany him now.
"Grandpa Huang's brother must be a very powerful person like Grandpa Huang."
The look of admiration on Zhu Ming's face made Zhu Yuanzhang so happy that he almost burst into tears.
"Yes, a very powerful person."
With that said, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was happy just now, became depressed again and sighed.
"This very powerful person is also sick now."
Zhu Yuanzhang and Xu Da were similar in age, and he probably felt the ruthlessness of time from Xu Da.
"How about Grandpa Huang not getting sick!"
Zhu Yuanzhang said, Zhu Ming had already hugged him.
This sentence was not only to appease Zhu Yuanzhang's emotions, but also to express Zhu Ming's true feelings.
Having been favored by Zhu Yuanzhang for so long, he also hoped that Lao Zhu could live longer.
When I grow up, I may be able to help Lao Zhu with some of the government affairs.
"Okay, okay, don't get sick."
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Ming with emotion. Just for the sake of our good grandson, we have to live longer until we can raise our good grandson.
"We're here, we're here."
Zhu Yuanzhang led Zhu Ming to the door of a large house, stopped, looked up at the big characters of Duke Wei's Mansion, and walked straight in.
Zhu Ming followed Zhu Yuanzhang, and the guards did not dare to block the way. They could only go to report, but were stopped by Zhu Yuanzhang again.
"The report will be waived. Let him lie down in bed."
After Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, he walked in on his own. His pace was so fast that even Zhu Ming could not keep up.
"Old man, we're here to see you!"
Zhu Yuanzhang entered the Duke of Wei's mansion, as if he were going home, and he didn't need anyone to lead him. He looked at Xu Da lying on the bed and shouted.
"His Majesty……"
An old but still somewhat angry voice came from the room.
"Lie down, lie down."
Seeing that the person who responded wanted to get up from the bed and salute, Zhu Yuanzhang quickly stepped forward and pushed the person back.
Zhu Ming looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and Xu Da who were reminiscing about old times, and stood obediently outside the door, looking at the old man lying on the bed through the candlelight.
At the age of fifty or sixty, the look on his face is still determined, and even the wind and frost cannot wash away the murderous look on his face.
"Your Majesty, which one is that?"
Xu Da also noticed Zhu Ming standing quietly at the door and asked Zhu Yuanzhang.
"He, he is our good grandson."
Zhu Yuanzhang was also happy to introduce Zhu Ming's existence to his old friend. Xu Da was the only one who could trust him.
"Is that the one who lives in your side courtyard?"
Xu Da was also slightly surprised when he heard Zhu Ming's identity.
Even though he has lived in seclusion here in Wei Guogong, he has only been involved in political affairs for so long, and he has heard of Zhu Ming's existence.
But he didn't expect that Zhu Yuanzhang would admit it so simply.
"Lin'er, come here and meet your Uncle Xu."
Zhu Yuanzhang also happily waved to Zhu Ming and asked him to walk into the room, wanting Xu Da to have a good look.
With Zhu Yuanzhang's permission, Zhu Mingcai walked into the room and came to the window.
"It really looks like Biao'er."
Xu Da stretched out his hand and touched Zhu Ming's head, and couldn't help but sigh.
The only one who could call Zhu Biao Biao'er in front of Zhu Yuanzhang was Xu Da.
Zhu Biao was born early and watched him grow up when they were starting out in the army. He was also taught martial arts by them personally, so he was considered half of their son.
These Huaixi nobles are all on Zhu Biao's side.
When Zhu Biao died, their grief was not much less than that of Zhu Yuanzhang.
Feeling Xu Da's sadness, Zhu Ming took another step forward so that he could see more clearly.
Hearing Xu Da mention Zhu Biao, Zhu Yuanzhang also became sentimental and sighed.
"His Majesty……"
Xu Da looked at Zhu Ming for a long time, then looked at Zhu Yuanzhang in a deep voice, and spoke slowly.
"What is your name, Your Majesty? You and I are brothers, so just call us eldest brother."
Zhu Yuanzhang corrected Xu Da's title with some displeasure, as if this would bring him and Xu Da closer.
"Brother, please bring him to see us, right..."
Xu Da smiled in relief. He is still our eldest brother after so many years.
"My dear grandson, let's go have some fun."
Zhu Yuanzhang also guessed that what Xu Da was about to say was of great importance, so he turned around and smiled to coax Zhu Ming out.
"good."
Zhu Ming naturally knew it, so he responded cheerfully, and then walked out of the door.
The Duke of Wei's mansion was very large, and he was still quite unfamiliar with the things in it.
"Brother, tell me the truth, do you want to..."
After watching Zhu Ming leave, Xu Da looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with relief and asked seriously.
"Hehe, our good grandson is talented, intelligent, and good at both civil and military affairs. He is worthy of being an emperor."
Seeing that he couldn't hide it from Xu Da, Zhu Yuanzhang also laughed twice in embarrassment.
He brought the child to see Xu Da. In addition to checking Xu Da's illness, he also wanted to ask his brother's opinion.
"Brother, we don't ask about Prince Li's affairs, you know that."
Xu Da rolled his eyes at Zhu Yuanzhang with some dissatisfaction.
"We know, it's just that among those Huaixi nobles and ministers, none of them want to establish themselves as leaders."
Zhu Yuanzhang also grinned sheepishly. He was indeed making things difficult for Xu Da.
It's just that he wants Ming'er to have the capital to compete with Zhu Yunwen for the throne, and this Huaixi noble must win.
What he meant was that Xu Da, as the representative of Huaixi nobles, would show his support. It would be good if he did not support Ming'er or help Yun Wen.
"If he becomes a talented person, then let him be the emperor."
Xu Da was silent for a moment, thinking of Zhu Ming's eyebrows that were similar to Zhu Biao's, and finally softened.
