Probably because she didn't want to listen to those gossips, Nannan seemed to have deliberately distanced herself from him since she was taken to the palace by Zhu Bai for a New Year's stay.
Zhu Bai was so anxious to avoid trouble that he didn't take it seriously.
It was okay to be a playmate when I was a kid.
Now that she has grown up, she will eventually get married and wants to keep her good reputation, which he can understand.
Zhu Bai caught a glimpse of the five commanders of the Military and Horse Division outside, and after saying "Zeng Ya Chang", he came down.
As soon as he arrived in the trading hall, the merchants saluted: "His Highness is back."
"Hello, Your Highness."
"Ah, go and tell them that King Xiang is back."
Zhu Bai nodded to them one by one in agreement.
This was supposed to be the busiest time of the day, but now there were only a dozen or so customers.
It is indeed much cooler.
The greater the contrast, the more important it is.
Zhu Bai curled his lips.
When the five commanders saw Zhu Bai coming out, they hurriedly saluted: "Your Highness."
Zhu Bai waved his hand: "I am free now, so I will go on a tour of the city with you. While walking, you can talk to me about what happened during this period. In the order of north, south, south, west, middle. Xudu Commander, please go with me first, while the other four adults will wait at the handover area."
All five commanders responded hurriedly, and then led the people to disperse.
Zhu Bai got on his horse. Zhang Yu and the others hurriedly mounted their horses to follow.
Commander Xu Du sighed softly as he mounted his horse: "I haven't seen your Highness for several months, and your skills are getting better and better immediately."
Zhu Bai smiled: "Practice makes perfect. I have been riding horses every day for the past six months, and I can't even think about it."
They walked slowly along the streets of Beicheng.
When the people saw Zhu Bai, they all stopped to say hello.
No matter how much the officials in the court and the wealthy families scolded Zhu Bai, the common people only knew that it was Zhu Bai who cleaned up the streets, punished the powerful, and set up low-rent housing.
So everyone still has some feelings for Zhu Bai.
Zhu Bai nodded slightly in greeting.
There are a lot of merchants coming in and out of the North Gate, but there are so few merchants in the Guanya Bureau. It seems that someone is doing something small again below.
Zhu Bai said to Commander Xu Du: "Excuse me, Commander, please post a notice for me. In the past, I will not blame anyone who set up a dental shop privately in Yingtian. However, from today on, all large transactions must go through the Guan Dental Bureau. Once found, Severe punishment will not be tolerated."
Commander Xu Du responded quickly.
In fact, he even knew who opened the private dental shop, but he couldn't tell Zhu Bai directly.
Zhu Bai's seven-orificed exquisite mind can probably figure it out without him having to explain it.
Now in the world of Yingtian, who else but Hu Weiyong dares to quietly confront Lao Zhu?
The streets were orderly and clean, and no one came out to redress their grievances or gathered to fight.
It can be seen that Commander Xu Du did not slack off during this period.
Zhu Bai said: "At noon, in my restaurant, I invite several of you to have dinner with me. Your Excellency, please be sure to come."
Commander Xu Du hurriedly handed over his hands: "I will be there on time."
Commander Cen Du was already waiting at the junction of Beicheng and Dongcheng.
Both of them bowed their hands to each other, and then the handover was completed.
The fallen fruits and leaves outside the east city wall have been swept away cleanly, and there are no signs of dirt occupying roads or digging holes indiscriminately.
Zhu Bai smiled: "It's okay."
That's because I heard you were back.
Commander Cen Du sighed secretly, but responded: "Yes."
Zhu Bai suddenly stopped and stared at the alley in front of him.
Haha, everything else is clean, but here, no one sweeps.
This used to be Li Shanchang's residence. Li Shanchang returned to his hometown this morning. Looking at the lantern on the door, it seems that someone is living there.
Zhu Bai pointed his whip and asked Commander Cen Du: "Who lives here now?"
Cen Du commanded: "Master Hu Weiyong."
Haha, it’s really an iron-clad mansion and a flowing water, sir.
During my trip to the northwest, Hu Weiyong, you bastard, did a lot of things behind my back. I'm worried that I won't have a chance to mess with you.
Zhu Bai sneered and raised his chin towards the door: "Call the door."
Zhang Yu and the others knew that Zhu Bai was deliberately trying to find trouble with Hu Weiyong, so they kicked him when he called the door.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The sound was loud.
-----
Hu Weiyong had just returned home from the court. Hu Fuchang was already waiting and asked: "Father, how are you? Did you force Lao Zhu to teach that bastard named Cen a lesson?"
Hu Weiyong sighed: "No, Zhu Bai is back."
Hu Fuchang was stunned: "Then let it go like this?! Is this beating for me in vain?"
Hu Weiyong: "You have to go out less recently. Today Lao Zhu threatened me and told me to control you well."
Hu Fuchang was so angry that he lifted the table: "Why? I was beaten and I still have to swallow my anger?!"
It's always him who hits others, so it's not his fault for others to hit him.
He is the son of the current prime minister! !
Hu Weiyong said: "Please be patient for a few days."
Hu Fuchang: "Patience for a few days, patience for a few days. When will it end?"
Hu Weiyong: "For half a year, half a year at most, I will vent my anger on you."
While he was talking, a customer had already arrived.
Hu Weiyong left Hu Fuchang and went to entertain the guests.
Hu Fuchang walked around the backyard in anger. His legs are still weak and it hurts when he walks. He is getting more and more irritable and is hacking in the backyard with a sword.
As a result, fallen branches were all over the backyard and alley.
At this moment, someone knocked on the door of the backyard aggressively. He shuddered, came to his senses and yelled at the servants: "Go and see, it's that bold guy who dares to come to my Hu Mansion and make noise."
The seventh-grade official of the prime minister's family slave.
The servants responded angrily, then rolled up their sleeves one after another and went to open the door fiercely. When they saw Zhu Bai on the horse, they were immediately frightened and weak.
Then everyone lowered their eyebrows and bowed their heads, nodding and bowing: "Hello, Your Highness. Why do you have time to come here to play?"
"Your Highness, please wait a moment. We will go and invite Mr. Hu."
Then someone quickly ran in to report.
Hu Fuchang was furious at this moment and didn't know how to die. He rushed out with his sword: "What the hell, who is so ignorant of life and death? You slaves, what nonsense are you talking to him?"
When he saw it was Zhu Bai, he was frightened.
The key point is that next to Zhu Bai is Commander Cen Du.
The horrific experience of being spanked at the door of the Military and Horse Division and being imprisoned that day came to mind. Hu Fuchang's mind buzzed, and he was terrified. He began to wave his sword around: "Don't come here, don't come here. Who is it?" Don’t even try to catch me.”
Zhu Bai said calmly to the people around him: "Someone is attacking me with weapons, and you are still standing?!!"
Zhang Yu responded, jumped off the horse and drew his sword to block, and the sword in Hu Fuchang's hand fell with a "ding" sound.
The other guards immediately swarmed up, pushed Hu Fuchang down, and tied him tightly.
Hu Weiyong, who was waiting for guests in the hall, heard the servant say that Zhu Bai was coming, and hurriedly left the guests behind and went straight to the backyard. From a distance, he saw Hu Fuchang tied up like a rice dumpling and placed outside the door. He cried out in his heart: My son, you It’s not good to offend anyone, but this “little king of hell”! !
