"this"
Zhu Di hesitated a little.
It's not that she's not allowed, but that her daughter has never traveled far, and her father will definitely be worried if she travels so far now.
After a moment, Zhu Di asked tactfully: "Can't we go somewhere closer? Why go to the south of the Yangtze River? It's a two thousand mile journey, and it's very hard to travel through mountains and rivers!"
"Father, as the ancients said, it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books."
Zhu Ningyun cast an expectant look and said: "My daughter has read thousands of books at home, but rarely leaves the house. My daughter is also looking forward to this trip. Along the way, she can appreciate this great river and mountains, and it can also increase my daughter's knowledge." "
Facing his daughter's pleading, Zhu Di was also a little moved.
I think there shouldn't be any accidents, right?
Could it be that you want to elope?
Zhu Di quickly gave up this idea. This should not be the case. They truly love each other and I have no coercion. I also want to give him a land and a mansion. Isn't it stupid to elope?
After thinking for a long time, Zhu Di still couldn't make up his mind.
"In this case, you go back and rest first, and I will discuss it with your mother and concubine. I will come over for dinner in the evening and give you an answer."
"Then my daughter will leave first."
"Li Xiao will leave first."
Li Xiao cupped his hands and Zhu Ningyun retreated first.
After the two of them left.
Only Yan and Wang were left in the room.
Zhu Di looked at Xu Miaoyun, "Princess, what do you think?"
Xu Miaoyun smiled and said: "My lord, as long as Ningyun is happy, it's fine. If you are worried, why not let Gao Xu go with you? With Gao Xu here, there shouldn't be any accidents."
"After all, that area is not under our jurisdiction. What if we encounter any danger?" Zhu Di was slightly worried.
"It shouldn't be possible, right? The country is now in good weather and the public security is good everywhere. My lord, you just love your daughter too much and are too worried."
Xu Miaoyun added: "From the last hunting, it seems that Li Xiao's archery and equestrian skills are good, and his martial arts skills are acceptable. He should be more than enough to protect Ningyun."
Zhu Di thought for a moment and thought it was okay. He nodded and said, "Well, since the princess thinks it is feasible, then I will let them play! People live only once and for all, and I only hope that Ningyun can be like this. Like this, live your whole life happily and peacefully.”
Xu Miaoyun smiled leisurely and said: "If you are really worried, let Zhu Gaoxu go with him. Although Gao Xu is young, he is gifted with supernatural powers and his martial arts skills are rarely matched by others. You should be reassured."
"If Gao Xu goes, I will be relieved."
Zhu Di said worriedly: "But Gao Xu is about to be named the King of Gaoyang County. According to the rules, he cannot leave the fiefdom."
"Your Majesty, there is no need to be so rigid."
"Isn't it true that I haven't been crowned a county king yet? The imperial edict will not come down for another month."
"After receiving the imperial edict, I will never be able to leave Peiping. I will simply take this opportunity to let Zhu Gaoxu go and have fun together."
"I'm just going for fun. I asked Gao Xu not to reveal his identity. It's no big deal."
"During this period, Gao Xu has been pursuing a girl named Wei. You should also know."
"He will definitely invite Miss Wei Jiangxue to go with him. The two couples will go out to play together. It will be a magical day. How many times can we have such a beautiful time in our lives?"
Although Xu Miaoyun seemed not to like the second child on the surface, in fact, she had a sharp tongue and a soft heart, and she was always thinking about Zhu Gaoxu in her heart.
When Zhu Ningyun and Li Xiao mentioned traveling to Jiangnan, Xu Miaoyun had this idea.
First, Gao Xu is highly skilled in martial arts and can protect the two of them.
Second, Zhu Gaoxu can also invite that girl Wei Jiangxue to promote their relationship.
"You kill two birds with one stone, Madam is so thoughtful!"
After hearing this, Zhu Di thought it was good and nodded: "That's it. Let Gao Xu go with us. In addition, I will arrange for ten personal guards with high martial arts skills to go with me. This way, everything will be safe."
Xu Miaoyun nodded, and her eyes fell on the Fengyoujing in Zhu Di's hand.
"Your Majesty, if this thing is really so magical, it can not only be used in the military, but can also benefit all people."
Xu Miaoyun is kind-hearted, and the first thing she thinks about is the people.
There are still many poor people who look down on doctors. If they can cure simple ailments, such good things will be much more useful than "white sugar".
Zhu Di patted his head, picked up the small green bottle in his hand, and said with a smile: "By the way, when I talked about my daughter's play, I even forgot about Fengyoujing. But whether this thing really has such an effect, we still need to test it. one time."
"Let Dr. Xu from Wangfu Good Medical Center give it a try and find out."
Xu Miaoyun smiled slightly and immediately went to arrange a medicine test.
The good doctor's office is an institution of the royal palace, with one good doctor and eight grades of good doctors. The deputy, from the eighth rank, is in charge of the medical affairs of the palace, and his responsibilities are equivalent to those of the imperial hospital in the palace.
After Dr. Xu got the Fengyoujing, he was shocked when he heard that it had so many uses, and immediately arranged for someone to test the medicine.
There is not much else in a good doctor's office. There are many apprentices. It takes a long time to learn medicine before you can cure diseases and save people. Before you become a doctor, you can only remain an apprentice.
After receiving the order, the apprentices immediately took action.
Some are looking for mosquitoes, some are taking baths with essential oils, and some are eating dirty things that cause stomachaches.
It's not summer now. In order to simulate heatstroke, some people are warming themselves by the stove.
Two hours later, Dr. Xu began to test the medicines one by one.
Good guy, Xu Yizheng was simply shocked by this Fengyoujing! ! !
It’s truly a miracle drug that can do everything! !
For apprentices who were bitten by mosquitoes, applying Fengyou Essence on it quickly relieved the itching, and even the scars disappeared. It was amazingly fast!
If you take a bath with Fengyou essence, your whole body will be extremely cool. If you put it in a room covered with mosquitoes, the mosquitoes will stay away!
People who suffer from diarrhea will soon feel less pain after drinking a few drops of Fengyoujing.
The apprentice who was warming himself by the stove suffered the most. He fainted due to the heat. He rubbed the acupuncture point of the person with Fengyoujing and woke up!
Not to mention its refreshing effect, Xu Yizheng tried it himself and the effect was remarkable!
"What a miracle medicine! What a miracle medicine! I have lived for so long and I have never seen such a miracle medicine!"
Doctor Xu's wrinkled face was full of disbelief.
As a doctor, he wouldn't want to develop this magical medicine, but it's a pity that he doesn't have the ability.
Now, such a magical medicine has appeared in the palace! !
He immediately kicked off and ran towards the main house.
"Your Highness King Yan, Your Highness King Yan, this is the magic medicine!"
The sound came before the person arrived, and the sixty-year-old Dr. Xu was not at all calm now.
When Zhu Di saw this, he was very happy and asked hurriedly: "How about this medicine?"
"Hoo ho ho"
Dr. Xu was panting while running, and it took him a long time to regain his composure. He stared at the medicine and said, "What a miracle medicine! The effects of the medicine that the princess mentioned just now have been verified one by one. The effect is outstanding. I have never seen such a miracle medicine. This wind oil Where does the essence come from? Who developed it?"
He couldn't wait to see who could develop such a medicine and be his own master!
Being able to see Doctor Xu being so moved, Zhu Di completely believed in the magical effect of Fengyoujing, but he still couldn't believe it and asked, "Is it really so effective? Are you sure?"
Dr. Xu said excitedly: "It's absolutely true! Especially the effect of repelling mosquitoes and relieving itching is great! It's several times better than the anti-itch cream I developed, and it's effective with just one application!"
"It works as soon as you touch it!"
Hearing this, Zhu Di became even more excited. It was a magical weapon in the military.
"Okay, okay!"
Zhu Di clapped his hands happily.
It seems that the daughter must go on this trip, otherwise the son-in-law will excuse himself and say that he cannot find inspiration.
Xu Yizheng didn't get the answer, so he raised his hand and asked: "His Royal Highness, who developed this medicine? This person is as if Hua Tuo were alive. Can I meet him? I want to worship this person as his teacher!"
Zhu Di: "."
Zhu Di was speechless. You are sixty-six years old and you still want to be an apprentice?
He waved his hand and said: "You don't need to know about this for the time being."
After saying that, he stretched out his hand and gestured to return the Fengyoujing, which was all he had.
"Ah this."
Xu Yizheng reluctantly took out Fengyoujing from his chest and handed it over.
After Dr. Xu leaves.
Xu Miaoyun came out happily: "It seems that Li Xiao has brought us another surprise."
Zhu Di said happily: "This Li Xiao is really my lucky star!"
At night.
The family sat around the table again and had dinner together.
At the dinner table, Zhu Di was the first to speak: "Ningyun, Li Xiao, I agree to your trip to the south of the Yangtze River. Please pay attention to safety on the road and be sure to come back before getting married."
The words fell.
The entire table fell silent, and the three Gao Chi brothers looked at Ning Yun and Li Xiao.
This is great news!
"Thank you, father. Father is the best to his daughter."
After receiving the permission, Zhu Ningyun jumped for joy and beamed with joy.
"Go to Jiangnan to play."
Zhu Gaoxu was immediately moved.
He had only heard that Jiangnan was beautiful and prosperous, but he had never been there.
By the way, I have Miss Jiang Xue to travel to Jiangnan together, that would be so cool! !
He stood up suddenly and said righteously: "Father, it is a long journey to the south of the Yangtze River. We will travel through mountains and rivers. We may encounter robbers on the way. I beg you to go and protect your sister!"
Zhu Di knew a long time ago that this guy would jump out automatically without opening his mouth.
He was just about to open his mouth to promise.
At this time, Zhu Gaosui on the side said angrily: "Are you going to protect your sister? You obviously want to visit Jiangnan yourself. Jiangnan is rich in beauties. If you go, wouldn't it be a disaster?"
Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help but get angry: "You're talking nonsense! I only have Miss Jiang Xue in my heart, how could I like other women?"
After saying that, Zhu Gaoxu realized that he had made a mistake.
"Father, look at it quickly. The second brother is not asking for trouble. He just wants to take that girl with him for fun."
Zhu Gaosui immediately stood up and said, "My dear, please go and protect my sister!"
The voice spoke righteously, echoing in the room.
Zhu Di: "."
Xu Miaoyun: "."
Zhu Gaosui: "."
Li Xiao, Zhu Ningyun: "."
Everyone at the table was rendered speechless by Zhu Gaosui.
You little man, are you so scheming?
I want to go all the time, and I stepped on your second brother first.
"Gao Sui, okay, how your second brother usually treats you, you actually cheated on me!" Zhu Gaoxu felt like he was being cheated, and he raised his hand to hit someone.
"stop!"
Zhu Di frowned and slapped his chopsticks on the table, "The whole family is so noisy, what are they talking about?"
The two of them stopped talking and sat down glumly.
"Okay, okay, don't cause any unpleasantness as a family, just listen to your father's arrangements."
Xu Miaoyun relaxed the atmosphere.
Zhu Di then said: "Gao Xu, what you just said makes sense. You will go together this time to protect your sister's safety. If there is even the slightest mistake, I will not spare you!"
It was like another village with a bright future and a bright future. Zhu Gaoxu thought there was no hope, but his father killed him.
He was overjoyed immediately, stood up and held his hands in his hands, saying: "My child accepts the order, and I will not let my sister get hurt at all!"
"Thank you, father." Zhu Ningyun said happily.
However, Li Xiao was a little confused. Why did he still need to bring a big light bulb for the honeymoon that he had agreed to do?
Zhu Di looked at Li Xiao and said: "Li Xiao, I will allow you to go to Jiangnan with Ningyun, but remember to protect Ningyun. I will also select ten personal guards with high martial arts skills in the army to protect you. Your safety."
What else could Li Xiao say? He stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, King Yan."
Wow, I went to Jiangnan for a trip. Zhu Gaochi cast an envious look and said, "Sister, Li Xiao, remember to bring me a gift when you come back from Jiangnan! The West Lake is so picturesque, you must go and see it."
In fact, Zhu Gaochi has been there. He is the eldest and has stayed in Nanjing the longest and has visited there before.
On the other hand, Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui, although Zhu Gaosui had stayed in the main hall of the Nanjing Imperial Palace, he was young at that time and had never traveled far, and he did not have the opportunity to go out when he came to Peking.
Not to mention Zhu Gaosui, who was born in Peiping and has never been outside Peiping.
When he heard that his second brother was going to Jiangnan, Zhu Gaosui couldn't stand anymore. He stood up and said with his hands in his hands: "Father, please let me go with you. With my second brother and me, we will be able to protect my sister safely."
Two couples are going out for fun. Why are you going? Zhu Di waved his hand: "Just don't go."
Kakaka——
Zhu Gaosui felt that his heart was breaking and bleeding.
Why can’t I go? My father prefers my second brother, and my mother-in-law prefers my eldest brother. I’m the only one who doesn’t love me. Isn’t it uncomfortable? Did I get picked up?
Seeing Zhu Gaosui's expression, Xu Miaoyun quickly comforted him: "Gao Sui, you are still young, so just listen to your father."
Zhu Gaosui nodded obediently, thinking that I had to go and no one could stop me!
"By the way, second brother, remember not to reveal your identity when you go out this time, so as not to cause trouble, do you understand?"
Zhu Di reminded him again to avoid any trouble.
"Father, my child understands."
Zhu Gaoxu nodded.
"That's good."
After everything was arranged, Zhu Di finally looked at Li Xiao: "Li Xiao, you should relax well when you go out this time."
The word "relax" is quite strong.
Li Xiao immediately understood its meaning.
Isn't it just to remind him that it's time to play and make trouble, and don't make fun of Fengyoujing.
He hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Li Xiao will definitely relax and maybe he will be inspired."
Fortunately, it is just a Fengyoujing. Maybe the system can refresh the Fengyoujing formula or something. This is not like guns. Medicines can still be made in the Ming Dynasty if they have a formula.
If you can't refresh it, the worst thing you can do is spend some points to refresh it a few more times.
Just like that, the matter was settled.
The family seemed harmonious again.
After drinking a little wine, Li Xiao went to rest after three drinks.
The second day.
Zhu Di asked Zhang Fu to select ten personal guards with good martial arts skills to carry out secret missions.
When they heard that the mission was to escort the princess to the south of the Yangtze River, they were all very happy.
This is simply a trip at public expense! ! !
Zhu Ningyun was also very excited. It was the first time to go out so far and she was so excited that she couldn't sleep.
Zhu Gaoxu, on the other hand, immediately enthusiastically invited Miss Wei Jiangxue.
Wei Jiangxue had also fallen in love with Zhu Gaoxu for a long time, and she implicitly agreed. The successful invitation made Zhu Gaoxu happy for a while.
Inside Yong'an Pavilion.
Li Xiaozheng took the map and discussed the travel route with Zhu Ningyun.
"Sister, I have invited Miss Jiang Xue."
Zhu Gaoxu ran over excitedly and reported the situation.
"That's great. Miss Jiang Xue can agree to you, which means that she already has you in her heart."
Zhu Ningyun is very happy. His younger brother has grown up now and has reached the age to get married.
She had met this girl Jiang Xue last time, and her impression was quite good. She was beautiful and well-educated.
"Thanks to my brother-in-law."
Zhu Gaoxu looked at Li Xiao gratefully: "Thanks to my brother-in-law who found the opportunity last time, he asked Jiang Xue to stop and look at the horses, which created an opportunity for me, my brother. Later, my brother-in-law gave me some advice, and it was very effective. He was soon able to let me go." Miss Jiang Xue favors me very much."
"Brother-in-law, can you give me some advice?"
Zhu Ningyun looked at Li Xiao doubtfully and said angrily: "Xiaolang, how can you come up with so many tricks to deceive women? Tell me, have you used them on me?"
"." Li Xiao was a little confused, why didn't Zhu Gaoxu have a good mouth?
"Ningyun, I have everything you can learn from me, and I can only be sincere!"
With that said, Li Xiao quickly changed the topic: "Let's study the research route first."
In this way, the three of them discussed for a long time, but no one came up with an idea.
Finally, the eldest brother Gao Chi had stayed in Nanjing and went to ask Zhu Gaochi for advice.
Zhu Gaochi is indeed very familiar with that place, and he also pointed out where the delicious food is, so be sure not to miss it.
Only then did the group decide on the route.
In the afternoon, everyone started sorting out what they needed to bring for the trip.
On the morning of the third day.
The traveling carriage team was placed in front of Prince Yan's Mansion.
The carriage was pulled by two fine black horses, shiny and full of endurance.
This time I went out to play and traveled lightly. Zhu Ningyun only brought some clothes.
The main route is by land and water, the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal.
However, due to the drought in Beiping, the water level of the canal from Beiping to Haijin Town (Tianjin) has dropped significantly and the silt has blocked it.
We can only take the land route first, and then take the water and land route after reaching Cangzhou.
It should take about twenty days to reach Yangzhou Mansion.
Several people discussed and decided that in twenty days, they would travel all the way from Yangzhou to Suzhou, then all the way to Hangzhou, and finally turn back, so that they could come back before the wedding.
Except for Zhu Ningyun and personal maid Zhang Cuicui who rode in carriages, everyone else rode horses.
"Ningyun, relax and have fun. Your father and mother-in-law also went there when they were young. You should also go there to relax. You have been suffocating in the mansion for so many years."
"Mother, I can't bear to leave you."
Before leaving, mother and daughter were talking together. Zhu Ningyun cried when she thought about not being able to see her mother and concubine for two months.
"Silly boy, just go in peace and go out and have fun."
Xu Miaoyun took her hand and comforted her.
As for Zhu Di, he is very simple.
He told the group to pay attention to safety and have fun, and then watched the carriage team leave.
"Father, mother and concubine, let's set off."
Zhu Ningyun was in the carriage, sticking her head out and waving goodbye. Li Xiao and Zhu Gaoxu also waved goodbye, and the carriage began to move slowly.
But really when the carriage left in a mighty manner.
Zhu Di didn't know why, but felt a little empty. He didn't return to the mansion with his hands behind his hands until the carriage went away and disappeared around the corner of the street.
The convoy moved slowly.
Exit the south gate and set off towards the south!
Li Xiao and Zhu Ningyun's honeymoon trip to the south of the Yangtze River has officially begun!
ps: In ancient times, Qianlong went to Jiangnan, and now Li Xiao goes to Jiangnan. The story behind is even more exciting!
