Zhu Di was confused: "What good thing?"
It's raining today. In the afternoon, the masters will give military lessons to the princes.
Zhu Di originally liked hearing this the most, but now he was forced to stand on the roof of Chengtianmen Tower by Zhu Baisheng.
Zhu Bai put the telescope into Zhu Di's hand: "It's almost midnight, fourth brother, pay attention to the people entering the palace."
Zhu Di smiled: "I don't know what you want me to see, but look at the rain. What can you see?"
The rain outside showed no sign of stopping. It was like a dense curtain connecting the sky and the earth. No one could be seen within twenty steps.
Zhu Bai scratched his head: This is indeed a problem. Zhu Di couldn't go out casually, otherwise he could hold an umbrella and have an encounter or something.
It only takes a minute or two for Miss Xu to cross the Chengtian Gate. The opportunity must not be missed and will not come again.
If Queen Ma also falls in love with Miss Xu later, this matter is basically a done deal and cannot be changed.
"How good is this?" Zhu Bai muttered.
Zhu Di smiled: "Then you can do a trick."
Zhu Bai sighed: "How can I have that magical power..."
Those who can control wind and rain are either monsters or gods.
Not to mention that an ordinary person like him couldn't do it, even Zhuge Liang had to "borrow" it because the east wind was going to blow in the first place.
Zhu Di said: "Since I can't do it, I'm leaving. I can't see anything anyway. It's better to listen to the master's lectures on war."
Zhu Bai grabbed him and said, "Don't. It's already here. Maybe the rain will stop soon."
As soon as I finished speaking, the rain actually lightened up.
Zhu Bai and Zhu Di stared at each other with big eyes.
Zhu Bai didn't dare to move. He hesitated and then said, "It would be better if we could stop for a moment and a half."
Then the rain really stopped.
Zhu Bai shouted in his heart: Let me go, Supreme Laojun, Jesus Christ, no matter which god helped me, thank you anyway.
Then a series of hoofbeats came closer and closer.
Zhu Bai frowned: To be fair, Miss Xu is a woman and should come in a sedan.
However, during this period, he had seen so many strange things that he was no longer surprised.
Two horses stopped at the foot of Chengtian Gate. Zhu Di and Zhu Bai raised the telescope together.
Dismounting were a middle-aged man and a young woman.
The man has a loyal appearance and a calm temperament, and is dressed in first-class official uniform.
This must be Xu Da.
Hiss, that woman is really Miss Xu.
She looks calm and majestic, and her beauty is above average. She is not the kind of beauty who is beautiful at first sight.
Tsk tsk, even riding a horse to meet the saint.
I wonder if his fourth brother, who has always disliked publicity, can't stand it?
Miss Xu and Xu Da got off their horses and announced, and were led one into the inner palace and the other to the royal study by two eunuchs.
Okay, finished reading. Probably no play.
Zhu Bai put down the telescope and found that Zhu Di was still looking over there, motionless.
Damn, was he scared out of his wits?
Zhu Bai was a little worried and called him softly: "Fourth brother."
Zhu Di's body trembled slightly, as if his lost soul had just been called back.
He put down the telescope, his cheeks flushed, and asked, "Are these the Duke of Wei, Xu Da, and his eldest daughter, Xu Changying?"
At this moment it started to rain again.
Zhu Bai felt as heavy as the weather and sighed: "Yes."
I originally wanted to take Zhu Di to see the beauty, but instead of being surprised, I was quite frightened.
"She came on horseback. This is the first time I have seen a woman who can ride a horse." Zhu Di murmured, "What an extraordinary woman."
Zhu Bai blinked: Damn, why are the brain circuits of the men in the Zhu family weirder than the other? !
Zhu Di looked at Zhu Bai, his eyes shining like stars: "Thank you, twelfth brother. The queen mother said that my father helped me to appoint the eldest daughter of the Xu family as my royal concubine. I am still wondering if I will Don’t like her.”
Does this mean that you like it very much?
Zhu Bai tilted his head and thought for a while: "Yes, Zhu Di is a fierce man, and it's not surprising that he has a special taste."
Zhu Di raised his hand to Zhu Bai and said, "I have something to ask my twelfth brother."
Zhu Bai hurriedly responded: "Fourth brother, please tell me, you're welcome."
Zhu Di said: "I am too old to enter the harem. I am also afraid that my mother will not like Miss Xu, so I want to ask my twelfth brother to go to my mother's place to see the situation and say good things to her."
You are afraid that things will get complicated and you won't be able to marry your sweetheart.
I just hope that you owe me a favor, so that if there is no place to hide in the future, I can still hide in your Peiping.
Zhu Bai smiled: "Okay. Since fourth brother likes Miss Xu so much, I should try my best to help."
Zhu Bai said goodbye to Zhu Di and went straight to Kunning Palace where Queen Ma lived.
Queen Ma has a generous and tolerant temperament, so young princes under ten years old do not need to notify her in advance when they come to her place, so that they can find her immediately if they are wronged.
Xu Changying had just entered Kunning Palace at this time.
In fact, Queen Ma's heart skipped a beat when she heard someone in the palace say that Xu Changying was riding a horse.
At this moment, seeing Xu Changying dressed up in a man's attire, he secretly thought that it was not good.
Lao Zhu promulgated a strict uniform system. From the emperor to officials at all levels, concubines, wives, and peasant soldiers, all were customized. They could not wear them randomly, otherwise they would be punished.
I usually wear whatever I wear at home, as long as no one reports it, it will be fine, but today Xu Changying is entering the palace, and she is so casual...
I don’t know if he did this on purpose or if he entered the palace in a hurry and forgot the etiquette.
Queen Ma waited for Xu Changying to come in and immediately ordered someone to close the palace door.
When Xu Changying saw it, she quickly knelt down and said, "The daughter of the people is frightened. I don't know where she made the queen displeased."
Empress Ma sighed: "Well, you and Mr. Xu have been in Peiping for a long time and have forgotten the rules of the palace. Let me ask you, according to the uniforms promulgated by the emperor, what should you wear when you come to see me?"
Xu Changying looked down at herself, suddenly realized, and suddenly panicked.
Heavy rain the day before yesterday slowed down their journey. They arrived fifty miles outside Yingtian Mansion at the end of noon, and then received the imperial edict to come to the palace to meet the saint at the beginning of the day.
Xu Da always had his official uniform ready. However, Xu Changying had just been awarded the fifth rank by Queen Ma, and had not yet had time to dress as the destined wife.
I came here on horseback to hurry up, so...
This matter can be big or small. If it is big, it will bring disaster to Xu Da's whole family. If it is small, she will be punished.
"I am a concubine who doesn't understand the rules. I beg the Queen not to punish the family."
Empress Ma frowned: "I won't punish you, but if you go out like this, if the officials see you, you will have to whisper a few words in the emperor's ear. Then the emperor will be in a dilemma. If you don't punish you, the decree will not be implemented. If you punish you , and feel distressed.”
The key is that she no longer likes Xu Changying and is hesitant to let her become Zhu Di's concubine.
Xu Changying was so frightened that she didn't know what to do.
Queen Ma was also thinking hard about how to deal with it.
The huge palace suddenly became nervously quiet.
"Squeak..."
The door rang slightly, someone pushed it open, and then Zhu Bai stepped in with one foot.
