Zhu Ming forced a smile and said, "My brother, I can't understand what His Highness said."
Zhu Biao sighed: "You have to understand my father's difficulties."
Zhu Ping saluted: "Your Highness, you have broken my brother."
When they met in private, they never behaved like monarchs and ministers, and only treated each other with family etiquette.
Now that Zhu Ping was so deliberately keeping his distance, Zhu Biao was at a loss as to what to do.
Even now or at any time in the future, Zhu Biao felt that Lao Zhu had done the right thing and was as tolerant as possible.
He changed the topic to break the embarrassment: "How is my little nephew? Take him out and let me see him."
Zhu Xi waved to the people around him: "Go and bring the prince."
The wet nurse held the pink-carved child in her arms. Zhu Cang took it and handed it to Zhu Biao.
Zhu Biao looked at the child lovingly and said, "The prince looks like you when you were a child, slightly paler than you."
Zhu Ming's dull expression finally showed a slight fluctuation, and he said softly: "No, my brother-in-law said so too."
At that time, the adults were busy fighting, and Lao Zhu's children did not have the same status distinction as those of other generals' children, and they all played the same games.
Deng Zhen led Deng Zhiqiu to find Zhu Fang and the others, and Zhu Fang met Deng Zhiqiu.
When talking about Deng Zhen now, we can't help but think of Deng Zhiqiu.
Zhu Xi looked at the child and was stunned.
Zhu Fang wanted to ask Zhu Biao about Concubine Li Shu, but he thought Zhu Fan would definitely ask.
And if Zhu Fan had the exact answer, he would definitely tell him.
He wants to keep a low profile, and it is better to do less than to do more.
Zhu Biao spoke up himself: "I don't know about Concubine Li Shu yet, but I will investigate. Once I find out, I will tell you the truth. You can rest assured."
Zhu Ping glanced at him gratefully and saluted: "I understand."
While he was talking, someone came running in from outside: "Your Highness, there are a large number of Mongols a hundred miles outside the city. The guard asked if they want to pursue them."
Zhu Ping's eyes immediately came alive and he glanced at Zhu Biao.
Zhu Biao: "Go and do your business, don't worry about me."
Zhu Fang hurriedly saluted Zhu Biao, and then walked out. As he walked, he asked the messenger: "Go and have a look. The Mongolians have not shown their heads for almost a year, why did they suddenly appear again."
Zhu Biao took the opportunity to look around the city of Xi'an and became more and more sure of his previous opinion: it was inappropriate to move the capital to Xi'an.
Zhu Feng came back when it was getting dark. He said that those people were here to inquire, and they didn't dare to get close. So he told the officers and soldiers on the Great Wall to keep watch carefully and not to be careless, so he came back.
Zhu Biao thought for a moment and said, "Could it be that they were scared of being beaten by their fourth brother and were short of food, so they wanted to come here to look around to see if there was any chance."
Zhu Xi grinned: "They won't have a chance. Lao Twelve has equipped the Northwest Guards with wild goose feather knives and fire guns, and they don't dare to get close. Even Guazhou and Hami, they can't enter now. "
Zhu Biao murmured: "This means that it is equivalent to expanding the territory of our Ming Dynasty to the west by more than a thousand miles."
Zhu Xi said, "Isn't that right? That boy, Lao Twelve, is a thief. He knows how to engage in joint tactics at such a young age. He will definitely be a good player in future wars."
Zhu Biao forced a smile.
Zhu Xi didn't know what he said wrongly again, the smile on his face froze and he fell into silence again.
But Zhu Biao was thinking in his heart: He must have a good inspection when he goes to Changsha to see what Zhu Bai is doing.
Although the Jin Yiwei and the pro-army captains all said that Zhu Bai had been staying in the palace since arriving in Changsha.
There was singing and dancing all day long in the palace, and there was constant silk and bamboo.
Zhu Bai has completely become an idle prince.
However, as long as he is around, even if nothing happens, the Guanya Bureau, Ordnance Factory, Guan Granary and Lianghuai Salt Transport will run smoothly.
It's really strange.
So Zhu Biao suspected that he was holding secret meetings in the palace and controlling these people to do their work.
On the day Zhu Biao came out from Xi'an, there were Mongolians wandering near the Great Wall again.
So he asked Zhu Xi not to send him off, but to keep an eye on the Mongols.
Zhu Tong, who was the most polite among the princes, came to pick him up at the city gate, but he was already at the city gate and he did not come out.
I think it was because Lao Zhu told him that he would not be able to leave Kaifeng City without an imperial edict in the future.
So Zhu Biao was a little dumbfounded: What a stupid brother of mine.
Zhu Ji was obviously very excited and happy to see Zhu Biao. In his opinion, Zhu Biao now represented Zhu Bai, Lao Zhu and Zhu Di.
Zhu Xi told Zhu Biao all the way: "Now I only see ten people a day. I only use 20% of my salary to treat people every month."
In fact, he didn't feel bad about spending his own money, but he felt very embarrassed when he found out that Zhu Bai was secretly subsidizing him, so he vowed to strictly follow Zhu Bai's instructions.
Zhu Biao comforted him: "I know. You did a good job."
Zhu Xi took a step closer and whispered: "Brother, you are okay. You don't look good."
When Empress Ma passed away, the most saddened ones must be the several direct princes and princesses, as well as Lao Zhu.
Lao Zhu did not go to court for several months, so he relied on Zhu Biao to support him.
Zhu Biao was stunned: Although Zhu Xi didn't say it, he actually missed them quite a lot.
Zhu Zhu added: "Do you want me to feel your pulse? Don't keep your sadness in your heart. It's not good for your health."
In fact, Zhu Biao often couldn't sleep after Queen Ma's death. It was so hard during the day, and I felt a little overwhelmed.
Think about how hard it is for you when you are not even thirty years old. If you are forty or fifty years old...
He did not dare to alarm the imperial doctor in Yingtian, for fear of worrying Lao Zhu, who was already sad and depressed.
Zhu Biao pondered for a moment and said: "Fifth brother is interested. Please help me take a look. But the result can only be known to you and not to others."
Zhu Biaoqing stepped back and said only that he wanted to talk to Zhu Zhu and closed the door.
Zhu Ju lowered his eyes and concentrated on Zhu Biao and checked the pulses of both his left and right hands twice before saying, "Brother, do you often feel chest tightness, palpitations, fever, flushed face, and upset and insomnia at night?"
Zhu Biao nodded: "Yes."
Zhu Rui said: "My eldest brother is still mentally ill. It's caused by excessive worries, anxiety and suspicion."
Am I just mentally ill? I was worried that Zhu Di would rebel, and that Lao Zhu would prefer Zhu Bai, so I was replaced. It's just that Zhu Di has always been the best friend with Zhu Di and Zhu Bai. So, could it be that he was instigated by them?
After being pointed out by Zhu Zhu's words, Zhu Biao secretly pursed his lips, retracted his wrist calmly, lowered his eyes and asked, "Do you need to take medicine?"
Zhu Rui: "There is no need to take medicine for the time being. It is only three parts poisonous. If I exercise my body and relax my mind, it will be fine slowly."
Zhu Biao smiled: "Fifth brother really has the demeanor of a doctor now."
Zhu Rui's face turned red: "Brother, thank you. My medical skills are far from adequate. Mainly because I see too few patients and don't have enough experience. With or without the guidance of an old doctor, I have to figure it out myself."
Zhu Biao suddenly came to his senses and said, "Is it because my fifth brother spent all his money to treat people's diseases just to gain experience?"
