"Mother, do you think anything will go wrong if Xiaolang goes to the capital?"
"My daughter is very worried."
Since Li Xiao left, Zhu Ningyun has been forgetting about tea and food these days. She always feels that something is missing, and she is a little distracted.
So Princess Yan called her to live in Prince Yan's Mansion and accompany her to relax every day.
On this day, the two of them were walking in the palace garden chatting, and Zhu Ningyun mentioned this matter.
"Don't worry, what could happen to Li Xiao?"
Prince Yan's Mansion took Zhu Ningyun's hand and comforted him: "You have forgotten that last time Li Xiao competed with Gao Xu, and even Gao Xu is no match for him now, so he is willing to lose."
"It's not that I'm worried about Xiaolang getting into trouble on the road."
Zhu Ningyun said worriedly: "Now that the capital is in contention, it is at a time of competition for the heir apparent. If Xiaolang comes to the capital, I am afraid that the Holy One will also know about it. Didn't you say that if my father is defeated, the Holy One will definitely get rid of Xiaolang?" I'm afraid."
"Silly boy, it's still early. It will take at least a year."
Princess Yan said: "It's nothing serious. Don't worry blindly. Aren't you able to communicate with Li Xiao? Can you sense where he is now?"
"Yeah, I'll try."
Zhu Ningyun couldn't help but feel happy when she thought of this. Her mother and concubine were smart.
As he spoke, Zhu Ningyun intertwined his hands into fists, closed his eyes, and felt Li Xiao's position.
She felt that Li Xiao was riding a horse at a very fast speed. He should not have arrived in the capital yet, but based on this speed and the time of departure, he should be arriving in the capital soon.
at the same time.
"Huh? My wife is sensing me again."
Li Xiao is far away.
Suddenly, he felt that Zhu Ningyun was spying on his position.
Li Xiao secretly rejoiced, his wife really cared about him, she must have missed him.
"This little girl discovered the function of this couple's ring belatedly."
"However, she must have never imagined that this is not a connection of minds, but a cheat."
"Let this beautiful misunderstanding continue."
Li Xiao chuckled and conveyed a message to Zhu Ningyun in his heart:
[Ningyun, husband, everything is fine with me, don’t worry. 】
【love you-】
Soon, a message came from there, and Li Xiao sensed it.
[Xiaolang, we can really connect with each other, and everything is fine with me in Peiping. 】
【The third day of loving you and missing you. 】
As the information comes.
Li Xiao found that the symbol of life span + 1 day appeared on his forehead.
【Ding! You and your lover Zhu Ningyun are far away in the horizon, but you feel as if you are close at hand. This love spans mountains and seas, and all mountains and seas can be leveled. Your love spans mountains and rivers, and it can be seen in the sky and the earth, and the sun and the moon are proof. Earn sweet points: 1000 points. Trigger a 50x critical hit and get sweet points: 50,000 points. 】
[Current sweet points: 3650000]
"I'll wipe it, that's fine."
Li Xiao was confused, and he found more and more ways to earn points.
Now there is no geographical limit, as long as the love is conveyed, it is enough.
"Twenty miles ahead is the city of Nanjing. It's coming soon. It's important to save Gao Chi first."
Thinking like this, Li Xiao raised the reins and sped up.
at the same time.
Peiping, Prince Yan's Mansion.
Zhu Ningyun was sitting in the pavilion.
His white arms were raised in front of him, and he didn't open his eyes for a long time.
Her expression was particularly happy, her eyebrows slightly raised, her red lips slightly raised, and beautiful pear dimples blooming on her delicate cheeks.
Always immersed in the ocean of happiness.
"Ning Yun, Ning Yun"
It wasn't until Princess Yan Xu Miaoyun shouted several times that she came back to her senses.
"Ah, concubine."
Zhu Ningyun's face turned red.
Princess Yan asked strangely: "You were giggling just now. Can you really feel it?"
"Um."
Zhu Ningyun nodded, "I sensed it. My daughter is completely relieved now."
"What?"
Princess Yan's eyes widened. She just said it casually.
"Xiaolang said."
Zhu Ningyun blushed and said shyly: "Xiaolang said that he was fine and told his daughter not to worry. He also said that he loved me. Then my daughter replied and said that I was fine. I think I can do this every day. Feel at ease."
ah? ? ? ? ?
Princess Yan's mouth opened slightly, very surprised.
Could it be that my daughter is a nymphomaniac and I am just making random assumptions?
"Mother, it's true. When two parties truly love each other, they can sense the voice in each other's heart."
Zhu Ningyun said seriously: "Mother, please give it a try. You and your father truly love each other. You will definitely be able to sense it. You just need to master the method."
"Really?" Princess Yan was a little doubtful.
"Really, true concubine, you try it and I will teach you how to do it."
With that said, Zhu Ningyun stood up and helped Princess Yan strike a pose.
Clench your hands into fists, place your fists between your eyebrows, and close your eyes.
I miss the one I love in my heart.
This posture was taken by Zhu Ningyun once in a while when he missed Li Xiao.
It turned out that I could sense Li Xiao's position, which was a great surprise.
Since then, she has been using this posture to sense. In fact, Zhu Ningyun can feel it in any posture she uses.
"Is this the posture?"
Princess Yan took a pose and asked.
"Yes, mother-in-law, please calm down now and miss your father's figure, his appearance, his voice, and everything about him."
"Let me try."
Xu Miaoyun adjusted her breathing, and then tried it in her mind according to the method taught by her daughter.
No feeling for a long time
Is it really that the love is not deep enough? ?
Xu Miaoyun couldn't help but curse in her heart, damn Zhu Di!
"Mother, do you feel it?"
Zhu Ningyun asked happily. She also hoped that her mother and concubine could experience this magical feeling.
Xu Miaoyun nodded slightly: "Yun'er, my mother and concubine have sensed it."
"Aqiu~~"
Zhu Di, who was far away in the capital, sneezed and couldn't help but rub his nose.
I secretly thought, it’s not autumn yet.
You shouldn't catch a cold, right? Is someone scolding yourself?
"Father, father, look who is coming!!"
Zhu Gaoxu started shouting from a distance.
Then he saw Zhu Gaoxu walking through the door with someone, and it was Li Xiao.
It turned out that in the past few days, Zhu Gaoxu was afraid that Li Xiao would not be found, so he walked around outside the city in person, waiting for Li Xiao.
At this time, Li Xiao looked particularly haggard and dusty, his hair was messy, his face was shiny, and he hadn't washed his face in several days.
After all, it was three days and three nights of running without a break.
I only changed a few horses at the inn, had food and water.
The rest of the time is spent on horseback, which is not something ordinary people can bear.
"son in law!"
King Zhu Di of Yan saw it and immediately stood up to greet him.
He personally supported Li Xiao and put Li Xiao on the seat, "Gao Xu, go and pour the tea."
Li Xiao looked like this. He hadn't slept for three days and three nights, running all the way with bloodshot eyes. How could Zhu Di not be moved?
"Father-in-law, no need, take me to see Gao Chi quickly."
Li Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that everyone seemed to have no sad expressions, he knew that Gao Chi's problem was not serious.
The first sentence he said was that he cared about his family, and Zhu Di was extremely pleased.
At this time, Zhu Gaoxu smiled awkwardly. "Brother-in-law."
Zhu Di made a look, signaling for him to explain.
Zhu Gaoxu then said: "Brother-in-law, the eldest brother originally had something to do, but after carrying it for two days, he is fine. Now he is alive and kicking again. I wanted to inform you, but you are alone and fast, so I can't contact you. .”
"Huh? Okay?"
Li Xiao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "As long as it's okay, it'll be okay!"
Zhu Gaoxu came over with tea and said, "Brother-in-law, all your hard work is in vain."
"It's not in vain, Gao Chi is fine, that's more important than anything else."
Li Xiao took the tea and took a sip, and said, "Where's Gao Chi? Let me help him take a look and find out what the cause is, so as not to cause pain again later."
These words really spoke to Zhu Di's heart.
This is a family, a family! !
Not only do I have three good sons, but I also have a good son-in-law, so we are a close family!
"Son-in-law, Gao Chi went out to do errands today, so don't worry. He's fine right now. You haven't slept in a few days, so go to sleep."
Zhu Di showed concern, and it could be seen that he was sincere and not fake.
"The prince has gone to do some work. That's all right. Then I'll go and rest. I'm indeed a little tired." Li Xiao nodded.
"Quick, Gao Xu, help your brother-in-law go to the room to rest."
"I know, Dad."
Zhu Gaoxu carefully supported Li Xiao and whispered: "Brother-in-law, a lot of things have happened in the past few days. You go to sleep first, and I will tell you in detail when I wake up."
"Uh-huh."
Li Xiao was arranged into a large room that had been prepared long ago.
He was indeed tired. As soon as he got on the bed, Li Xiao fell asleep.
Zhu Gaoxu covered Li Xiao with a quilt himself, and then quietly left the room, for fear of waking up his brother-in-law.
After this sleep, I slept until the next morning.
The sun enters the window, and the birds outside the window are chirping.
Opening his eyes again, Li Xiao felt like he was alive.
"Fortunately, I am physically strong. Ordinary people would probably fall apart long ago."
Li Xiao jumped up and opened the system mall as usual.
[Items refreshed in the system mall today:]
[1. A bottle of Liushen toilet water. It costs 250 points. 】
[2. Cut one nail. Spend 800 points. 】
[3. Magical power: Conceal the truth (consume energy to erase short-term memories of yourself or others). Consume 600,000 points. 】
[Consume 100 points to refresh items. 】
[Current points: 3,650,000 points. 】
"Clear the mall."
Li Xiao emptied it directly without thinking.
After all, Ningyun is now with his beloved, and has fifty times the points for critical hits, so there is no need to worry about not having enough points.
"By the way, I haven't reported to Ningyun today that I'm safe. You can't let girls take the initiative every time. As a man, you have to be gentle and proactive."
Thinking like this.
Li Xiao sensed Ningyun in his heart and conveyed his inner words:
[At dawn, it is not only the sunshine that lights up, but also your good mood. Good morning, I love you. 】
Soon, Zhu Ningyun also sensed it and replied:
【Just the chance to look back on you makes me think about your morning and evening. Love you. 】
Later, Li Xiao saw the news that sweet points and life span had increased.
"Great, I didn't know I could play like this a few days ago, and I wasted a few more days of my life. My current age should be eighteen years and six days. Damn it, I walked for six more days. I need to pay attention to it in the future, but Qian Qian You mustn’t grow old.”
Li Xiao muttered to himself, and then used telepathy to send a message to Ningyun.
[Ningyun, I have arrived safely. Everything is fine at my father's side, and Gao Chi is fine as well. Just feel at ease. I will go back to Peking after checking on Gao Chi. 】
[Husband, I’m here in Peiping, so don’t worry. I’ll be fine if everything is fine with you. 】
【Boer~】
【Boer~】
After being sweet to each other for a while, they gave up.
Otherwise, you won’t have to do anything else all day long.
Realizing that his nails were a little long, Li Xiao thought of the nail clippers he had just bought in the system, so he took them out and sat by the bed to pick up his nails.
"Brother-in-law, are you awake?"
At this time, Zhu Gaoxu knocked lightly on the door.
"Wake up and come straight in."
Li Xiao shouted through the door.
With a creak, the door opened.
Zhu Gaoxu walked in with a smile on his face and asked thoughtfully: "Brother-in-law, have you rested?"
Li Xiao nodded and said with a smile: "Isn't it just a three-day horse ride? This is nothing. By the way, what happened in the palace recently as I told you."
Next, Zhu Gaoxu began to talk about what happened during the recent fight for the reserve.
There are indeed many things going on.
It turns out that Zhu Yunxi has been kicked out.
When Li Xiao heard that Lan Yu was sent to prison, his eyes lit up.
"Your Majesty, you did a great job. This Lan Yu even sent dead soldiers to Peking to assassinate me a few days ago. If I hadn't been clever, something big would have happened."
Li Xiao cursed.
"What? There is such a thing!"
Zhu Gaoxu became angry immediately, clenched his fists, and cursed: "The dog thief Lan Yu actually did such a clumsy thing. I will tell my father later and ask him to impeach Lan Yu. It is a serious crime to assassinate a relative of the emperor." .”
"never mind."
Li Xiao smiled and waved his hand: "I don't have any evidence. After the assassin came out after questioning, he killed him. Anyway, Lan Yu is also in jail now. He has been charged with all the charges. Are you afraid that he will be able to get over?"
"makes sense."
Zhu Gaoxu nodded: "This Lan Yu probably won't survive. Since Zhu Yunxi has been kicked out, no matter who becomes the crown prince, the Holy Emperor will not keep Lan Yu."
"Hey, brother-in-law, what are you doing?"
Zhu Gaoxu suddenly discovered that his brother-in-law was holding a small thing and scissoring his fingers.
"Cut your nails."
"Cut your nails?"
Zhu Gaoxu was very surprised. When he took a closer look, he found that this thing in his brother-in-law's hand could be cut off with just a tap, which was particularly magical.
"Brother-in-law, is this your new invention??"
"Bad gadget, you seem to want it?"
"Yes."
"give you."
Li Xiao originally wanted to pick up a toenail, but since the other party wanted it, forget it.
So he threw the nail clippers to Zhu Gaoxu.
Zhu Gaoxu happily took it.
Then I tried to cut my nails, and the nails fell off with just a pinch.
"I'll go... Miaoah"
Zhu Gaoxu was very surprised.
Because everyone uses scissors to cut their nails, look at my brother-in-law, this thing is really professional.
"It's the principle of leverage."
Li Xiao explained casually, but thinking that the other party might not understand, he let it go.
After Zhu Gaoxu finished cutting his nails, he liked this little thing even more. He closed it and stuffed it into his pocket, thinking that he would never need to use scissors to cut his nails again.
"By the way, brother-in-law, I heard that you recently bought a paper workshop in Peiping. In addition to manufacturing newspapers, you are also developing a soft, silk-like paper for toilet use?"
Zhu Gaoxu suddenly thought of this and felt curious.
"That's it. This is called heart-to-heart toilet paper. It's clean and hygienic."
Li Xiao took out a pack of toilet paper and handed it over, "This kind of paper is more comfortable than silk for using in the toilet. The most important thing is that it is cheaper than silk. It can decompose by itself after use and throw it on the ground, so it will not cause pollution." "
This is a system product, and the workshop's development methods are still in progress.
Yes, Li Xiao plans to popularize this kind of toilet paper in Ming Dynasty.
Because he found that many people died every year in the Ming Dynasty due to unhygienic toilets, and the people suffered even more.
He felt this pain when he first arrived.
Where there is demand, there is supply.
Finding people's pain points can not only benefit society, but also make some money along the way.
Open a workshop and create jobs.
“Clean and hygienic.”
Zhu Gaoxu took the toilet paper and took out one.
It's really soft and has a light fragrance.
"Brother-in-law, this is a good thing. I can guarantee that once this thing comes out, it will be very popular."
Zhu Gaoxu's eyes sparkled, and he seemed to see a lot of small coins floating in front of his eyes.
"Brother-in-law, let me take a share!"
With that said, Zhu Gaoxu did not allow Li Xiao to refuse.
He took out a wad of banknotes and stuffed them into Li Xiao's hand.
He had heard that Prince Yan's Mansion held 30% of Li's Clothing Company's shares, and last month his mother-in-law received a dividend of more than two thousand taels of silver.
But he was so greedy.
Now that my father is not here, I should quickly join in, lest my father interferes again.
"Well. I want to pee."
Li Xiao had black lines all over his head and felt the urge to urinate.
After all, I was still holding my first pee when I woke up in the morning.
"Brother-in-law, I will go with you."
Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help but pulled Li Xiao toward the toilet.
On the way, he kept telling Li Xiao that he must take part in it no matter what.
Li Xiao was really a little soft-hearted, so he had no choice but to agree.
"That's okay, but it can't be too much. You'll get 10%."
"One percent is fine!"
Zhu Gaoxu was very happy and forced his five thousand taels of silver notes to Li Xiao.
He knew that with his brother-in-law's ability, the five thousand taels would probably be repaid within a few years, and the rest would be in vain.
No wonder Master Yao Guangxiao said that his brother-in-law is very lucky.
I have the best relationship with my brother-in-law. Those who are near the water and the towers get the moon first.
The two of them were as close as a pair of brothers, standing side by side in the latrine to pee.
"Brother-in-law, I have a heartfelt request for you."
"You said, if my brother-in-law can do it, he will definitely do it."
Zhu Gaoxu thought that tonight, the emperor's grandfather summoned them to the palace for dinner. What if they could be used tonight?
"Brother-in-law, I want you to write a poem for me. Any poem will do."
Zhu Gaoxu said.
"This won't help. You need inspiration to write poetry. You think it will come just by opening your mouth. I have no inspiration now."
Li Xiao shook his head.
"It doesn't need to be too good, just be casual. Anyway, with my brother-in-law's talent, he will definitely be able to do it," Zhu Gaoxu kept saying like a fly.
Li Xiao frowned slightly: "Okay, let me think about it."
Thinking that the two of them were peeing together, they casually said:
"Let's go pee together,
You pee a line.
I dug a hole. "
Zhu Gaoxu: "Brother-in-law, is this a poem? Why does it feel so vulgar?"
Li Xiao: "Vernacular poetry, it's funny, I'm not embarrassing you, right?"
Zhu Gaoxu: “I’m a little embarrassed.”
Zhu Gaoxu shook the bird and thought to himself, it seems that his brother-in-law really has no inspiration now and actually fooled himself.
Afterwards, the two returned to the hall.
Everyone got up one after another, and Zhu Di went out to do errands.
Zhu Gaochi saw Li Xiao's excitement and hugged Li Xiao enthusiastically.
"I miss you. I heard that you ran for me for three days and three nights. I'm so touched."
"Gao Chi, I miss you too. When I heard the news that you were sick, I was very anxious and rushed over immediately. I also wanted to see you."
After a while of greetings, the brothers sat around the table to eat.
"Brother-in-law, why don't you stay in Yingtian for a few more days?"
At the dinner table, Zhu Gaochi said enthusiastically.
"Yeah, there's nothing to do anyway, just stay with us for a few days."
Zhu Gaoxu also suggested.
Li Xiao thought for a while and said: "In that business, I can't stay for a long time. I will stay for another day tomorrow and return to Peking the day after tomorrow. The second brother has already told me about the current situation. I feel that my affairs in Peking are still not handled by the Holy Spirit." It’s better to know and hurry back to avoid causing trouble.”
Everyone also thought about it, felt it made sense, and all agreed.
After all, we are all in the same boat and we have to work together in everything.
The brothers were talking and laughing, which was particularly fun.
after eating,
Li Xiao asked Zhu Gaochi to lie on the bed and prepared to help him find out what was wrong with him.
Although according to history, he should not have any big problems now.
It's better to take a look, in case there is any butterfly effect or something, it will be troublesome.
"Where does it hurt?" Li Xiao asked.
"Here." Zhu Gaochi pointed to the lower right side of his stomach.
Li Xiao touched it and said fearfully: "It must be acute appendicitis here. Fortunately, you survived it, otherwise it would be really dangerous!"
Acute appendicitis requires surgery.
Otherwise, if you don't get through it, you won't be able to survive it, no kidding.
This sentence shocked everyone, and they quickly asked if there was a solution.
"The solution is to cut open the stomach, cut out this section of intestine called the appendix, and take it out. Then there will be no major problems in the future."
Li Xiao used his hand as a scalpel and made a gesture on Zhu Gaochi's round belly.
In fact, the development of traditional Chinese medicine in the Ming Dynasty was very advanced. Simple surgical operations were already available, of course, some simple surgical operations, but there was no such appendix surgery.
This action frightened Zhu Gaochi, and he hurriedly said: "How can parents take out the intestines when their body is so damaged? Absolutely not!"
Li Xiao smiled and shook his head, "It's okay not to cut, but you can't eat and drink indiscriminately in the future, especially not drinking too much, otherwise there will be big problems, and you may not be able to survive it next time."
With this kind of problem, the probability of death is still very high.
"Yes, yes, I will listen to you from now on."
Zhu Gaochi was so frightened that his belly trembled. This time he was serious.
I thought to myself, it would be better to eat less fat meat in the future.
The evening sun slowly sets in the west, and the golden afterglow falls under the palace.
Like a layer of golden gauze gently covering every corner of the palace, the entire palace shines brightly and brilliantly.
Imperial Palace, Imperial Study Room.
Zhu Yuanzhang is correcting the memorial.
The commander of Jinyiwei, Erhu, came over.
Erhu cupped his hands and said. "Your Majesty, we have found out the news that Zhu Gaochi, the crown prince of King Yan, suddenly fell seriously ill. Zhu Di privately sent his son-in-law Li Xiao to come for treatment."
Zhu Yuanzhang asked hurriedly. "What? How about Gao Chi?"
Erhu replied: "There is no serious problem now, I am fine."
"That's good."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly and asked, "Where does Li Xiao live now?"
Erhu said: "I'm staying at Prince Yan's residence now."
During this time, Zhu Yuanzhang became more and more interested in Li Xiao.
I heard that my grandson-in-law has very good medical skills, but the fourth son called him here privately, probably just to treat Gao Chi, and he didn't plan to stay for a long time. I was afraid he would leave after a few days.
"I would like to meet this grandson-in-law."
Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while and said: "Erhu, you can think of a way to not let Li Xiao know my identity, but also to allow him to stay in the capital for a few more days to have contact with me."
"this"
Erhu was stunned on the spot.
You can stay and communicate without revealing your identity.
How can this be done? ?
Li Xiao is no ordinary person either.
"What? Can't you do such a small thing?"
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned slightly.
"I will do my best."
Erhu had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree.
"Don't do your best, you have to do it!"
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to miss this opportunity for Li Xiao to come to the capital. The more he studied the previous methods of resolving the disaster, the more he felt that Li Xiao had a great talent!
In addition, he also wanted to know secretly whether Li Xiao was who he was rumored to be.
A great man who cares about the people and a good businessman who benefits the people.
Hearing is false, seeing is believing, and it can only be verified with one's own eyes.
"I accept the order and will go down to find a solution."
Erhu only felt his scalp numb, he cupped his hands and retreated.
"Your Majesty, you are inviting King Yan and his family to have a meal tonight. It's already time. King Yan and his three grandsons are already waiting in the palace."
At this time, a eunuch came over and reminded.
During these days in Beijing, Zhu Yuanzhang took the initiative to express his cordiality to Zhu Di.
After all, Zhu Yuanzhang's preference for Zhu Di has become heavier and heavier with Li Xiao's contributions.
If you really want to give the crown prince position to Zhu Di, you still have to have a heart-to-heart talk.
"Put it on, the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart."
Zhu Yuanzhang stood up and walked towards the Yangxin Hall.
Not long after, Zhu Yuanzhang arrived at the Yangxin Hall. A table of delicious dishes had been prepared in the imperial dining room. He also specially ordered to prepare Zhu Di's favorite roast mutton and goose with pepper and vinegar.
"My son, please see your father."
Zhu Di was a little excited. He came early to wait. When he saw Zhu Yuanzhang arriving, he immediately ran over to greet him.
In so many years, this was the first time that his father personally called him to eat, and he thought that things were probably going to be bad.
"My grandson has met the imperial grandfather."
Zhu Gaochi and the other three also bowed obediently.
"Forgive me, I won't do the courtesy of a king and a minister today. Let's sit down and have an ordinary meal as a family."
Zhu Yuanzhang was wearing casual casual clothes, smiling and waving for several people to sit down. The atmosphere seemed very harmonious, like a father and son, grandfather and grandson who had not seen each other for a long time.
After Zhu Yuanzhang sat down, Zhu Di slowly sat down.
Zhu Di seemed to be extra cautious. In the past, only his eldest brother Zhu Biao was eligible for this kind of treatment of eating alone with his father.
"Father, I heard that you have had a headache recently and cannot sleep well, so I went to buy Queen Bee Honey Walnut Cream."
As he spoke, Zhu Di took out a small wooden box and said, "This is queen honey. It is extremely hard to find and is extremely effective in relieving headaches."
This is what Zhu Di has been busy outside today, looking for this queen bee ointment.
"I'm determined."
Zhu Yuanzhang took it with a smile, "Fourth, in fact, these are available in the Eastern and Western Palaces, but when your filial piety comes, we will continue. Hey, this is a problem of old age, and it is difficult to cure."
Hearing this, Zhu Di was very excited.
In the past, my father always talked about me in front of him. When he talked about us, it meant being close and treating him as a family member.
"Eat, don't be stunned."
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his chopsticks.
Looking at several very nervous grandchildren, he looked at Zhu Gaoxu and joked: "Gaoxu, I heard that you are so courageous that you dared to go up the mountain to shoot tigers at the age of thirteen. Why are you so nervous now? Are you afraid of grandpa? Are we, compared to Is the tiger still scary?"
"I'm not afraid. What am I afraid of? I just wasn't used to it."
When Zhu Gaoxu heard this, he said, "Hey, the emperor's grandfather felt very friendly and kind today when he spoke. He didn't seem that scary. He should eat and drink, but he should be afraid of nothing!"
With that said, he picked up the bowl and started picking up vegetables and cooking rice.
With Zhu Gaoxu taking the lead, brothers Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaosui relaxed a lot and started eating.
But it was obviously a bit cold.
No one knew what to say, and everyone was still nervous.
Not to mention these three grandchildren, Zhu Di himself was a little nervous.
Zhu Di didn't expect that after so many years of conquering the grassland, he would still be nervous eating alone with his father for the first time. However, seeing Zhu Gaoxu let go, he gradually relaxed a little.
Zhu Yuanzhang grinned: "If you're not used to it, come here more often and you'll get used to it. But I'm afraid you won't be used to the food in the south after living in the north for a long time."
Hearing this,
Zhu Di was so excited!
Is your father sending a signal?
What does it mean to come often in the future?
Does this mean that we will call the palace our home from now on?
"Father, I would like to propose a toast to you."
Zhu Di pretended to be calm and picked up the wine glass, and Zhu Yuanzhang also picked it up with a smile.
Zhu Di smiled relaxedly and said: "I have been to Peiping these years, and what I miss most is Nanjing. At first, I thought I missed Nanjing's climate, scenery, and food. Later, I discovered that what I really missed was my father." ah."
"We've been listening to Fang Xiaoru talk about filial piety every day lately."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly and clinked glasses with him, "We can see your filial piety."
Zhu Di was so excited that he drank it all in one gulp.
But putting down the wine glass, Zhu Yuanzhang's next words made Zhu Di feel cold.
"I'm afraid. You are not thinking about me, but the chair sitting under my butt."
Zhu Yuanzhang said with a faint smile.
How could his ability to manipulate people's hearts be matched by Zhu Di's?
The last sentence made Zhu Di float up, and the next sentence made Zhu Di feel a chill rushing from his heels to his spine, which was as exciting as a roller coaster.
Zhu Di said hurriedly: "Father, you have misunderstood me."
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled: "We have not misunderstood you. We have seen it all during the time we were in Beijing. Your father and I are not old yet, and my eyes are still bright."
Zhu Di said sadly: "Father, you also know that my son and Lan Yu are not dealing with each other. I am worried that the emperor's nephew Zhu Yunxi will come to power and be unable to hold Lan Yu down. If his relatives become bigger, then Lan Yu will be bad for him and the country." . I am sincere, thinking for the Ming Dynasty, and planning for the Ming Dynasty. This is also a last resort, forced by the situation."
"Speaking with great justice."
Zhu Yuanzhang slowly put down his chopsticks and said, "But in the end, you still care about me."
"My son, I don't dare."
Zhu Di was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground and said: "Misunderstanding, father, I still remember that when we were in the main hall, you patiently taught my son how to read in public. 'A talented person is not prepared to rule,' I still remember." I still remember these words, keep them in my heart, and remind myself all the time. In Beiping, my sons also used these words to govern the vassal territory. Thanks to the teachings of my father, I always remember everything my father taught my sons in the past."
Zhu Di knew that his father was beating him up and he had to deal with it well, so he played the family card again.
"A talented person who is unprepared is not enough to govern."
Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it carefully and found that he seemed to have said this to Zhu Di, but it was too long ago and he couldn't remember clearly. He said, "Do you still remember what we said to you?"
"Remember, I dare not forget, please encourage yourself at all times." Zhu Di nodded.
"Get up, let's talk about home affairs. Why are we so serious?" Zhu Yuanzhang said.
Zhu Di breathed a sigh of relief and sat down.
"By the way, why is my grandson-in-law Li Xiao not here? We heard that he is coming to the capital."
During the meal, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly mentioned this matter, which was regarded as a slap in the face to Zhu Di, telling him that I am watching every move you make.
Although Zhu Yuanzhang now favors Zhu Di, he still has to guard against him.
If he chooses Zhu Yunwen, he doesn't have to be too defensive.
But Zhu Di's ability is too strong. If he doesn't take precautions, can he enjoy his old age in peace?
In addition, we should take our time to see how this fourth child compares with Zhu Biao.
The reason why Zhu Yuanzhang was so reassured about Zhu Biao was because Zhu Biao was truly filial to him and had a father-son relationship like ordinary people.
"Nothing can be hidden from my father's eyes. Gao Chi suddenly fell ill, so he asked Li Xiao to come and take a look."
Zhu Di said hurriedly: "But Father, you didn't declare him, so I don't dare to bring him here without authorization. Otherwise, I want Gao Sui to call him here now?"
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "No need, we have already eaten half of the meal, why do we ask others to come?"
Zhu Di said: "If my father meets me, I will let him stay a few days late."
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and waved his hand, "No, you are not in Peiping, and Prince Yan's Mansion still has so many affairs. It is right for you, my son-in-law, to help Xu Miaoyun."
"Yes." Zhu Di nodded.
After some beating, the atmosphere gradually turned harmonious.
"Grandpa, did you know that once my grandson went to hunt tigers and met two of them at once?"
Zhu Gaoxu was so courageous that after drinking a few glasses of wine, he started telling stories to Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Hey, you still have this ability." Zhu Yuanzhang also talked with him.
Then, the atmosphere became lively.
Sometimes, there needs to be this role at the dinner table.
Maybe he drank too much,
Zhu Gaoxu felt that he couldn't hold back his urine.
"Grandpa, my grandson needs to go for a convenience."
"Don't worry, grandpa will go with you."
Zhu Yuanzhang also felt the need to urinate, so he got up and walked away, followed by Zhu Gaoxu.
After the two of them leave, leave the hall.
Zhu Di took a deep breath.
Only then did he realize that his back was soaked with sweat.
"Gao Chi, bring a quick cloth to wipe daddy."
"Dad, this is Xinxiangyin toilet paper, it absorbs sweat. My hands are fat, Gao Sui, come and wipe them for me."
Zhu Gaosui picked up the paper and wiped it on Zhu Di's back. As expected, it was more absorbent and quickly absorbed the sweat.
"Dad, relax."
Zhu Gaochi whispered, it was the first time he had seen his father so nervous.
"Gao Chi, please talk to grandpa more later."
Zhu Di ordered this to avoid being beaten all the time, which his heart couldn't bear.
"yes."
"Grandpa, let me help you, you are a little drunk."
Zhu Gaoxu supported Zhu Yuanzhang, feeling happy in his heart.
Look, dad looks so scared.
Look at me again, relax
Zhu Yuanzhang came out to take a breath and was thinking about things in his heart.
He finally figured out that Zhu Di's three sons each had their own strengths.
Gao Chi is kind and kind, his personality is similar to Zhu Biao, and he has extensive knowledge of ancient times and modern times.
Zhu Yuanzhang even vaguely felt that Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Biao were too similar, not like Zhu Di's son, but like Zhu Biao's son.
Gao Xu is brave and has a similar personality to Zhu Di, but he is less calm, but he can be trained and can fight well.
Gao Sui is cautious, good at observation, agile and flexible, which are also rare qualities.
In addition, there is Li Xiao, a capable minister in governing the world.
This family's team alone is very good.
"Gao Xu, grandpa underestimated you before. You still have some talents, but you are a bit reckless. I will learn more from your elder brother Gao Chi in the future."
While walking, Zhu Yuanzhang whispered.
"I will follow my grandpa's teachings. Whatever grandpa says from now on, I will do it!"
Zhu Gaoxu felt a little overwhelmed when he heard the praise.
"Grandpa, you first."
When he came to the latrine, Zhu Gaoxu did not go in first.
"What are men afraid of? Come together."
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said.
"good."
Zhu Gaoxu was also really rude. He unfastened his belt and got into the pit.
Then, grandfather and grandson peed side by side.
For a moment, Zhu Gaoxu felt that this scene seemed familiar.
Then he thought, hadn't he peed with his brother-in-law in the morning, and asked him for poems?
Wow, my brother-in-law is so clever. Did he specially prepare this peeing poem for me?
At the time, he thought the pee poem was a bit vulgar.
But looking at it now, my brother-in-law has another deep meaning.
Yes, writing poetry is not about beautiful words, but about fitting the scene.
It turns out that was my brother-in-law’s intention! !
"In this situation, I just want to recite a poem."
Zhu Gaoxu spoke while peeing.
"Huh? Let's talk about it."
Zhu Yuanzhang also became interested.
This time, Zhu Gaoxu became even more excited and opened his mouth:
"Let's go pee together,
You pee a line.
I dug a hole. "
Finished.
The pit suddenly became quiet.
Extremely quiet.
Zhu Yuanzhang was originally concentrating on waiting for Zhu Gaoxu's performance.
result
"You are such a fucking idiot, what a piece of shit."
Zhu Yuanzhang angrily kicked Zhu Gaoxu on the butt. Zhu Gaoxu staggered and almost fell into the pit.
It suddenly occurred to him that it seemed that the last time he made the emperor's grandfather angry, it was also a trap.
"Grandpa, my grandson is wrong. He will never read poetry again."
Zhu Gaoxu shrank his head and begged for mercy.
"You're just reciting a bad poem. You said that you peed in a hole because grandpa is old and can only pee in one line??"
Zhu Yuanzhang's beard was so angry that he kicked him again.
"Grandpa, you're in the wrong place. You're in the wrong place."
"."
Wait for Zhu Gaoxu to come back.
The footprints all over his body made him look a little embarrassed.
"Gao Xu, what are you..."
"Dad, I fell down in the latrine myself. It's okay."
"."
In this way, although there was a small episode, it actually shortened the distance.
The rest of the meal was very harmonious.
After talking until late at night, Zhu Di took his three sons to say goodbye.
Zhu Yuanzhang's preliminary inspection of Zhu Di's family ended here.
Then, the rest is to target Li Xiao.
In a blink of an eye, it’s the morning of the next day.
Outside the residence of Prince Yan.
Li Xiao spent a day with a few brothers in the capital, and then he was about to leave.
My daughter-in-law misses her so much at home that she must go home.
Li Xiao got on the horse and waved goodbye.
"Son-in-law, remember to help me and bring peace to the princess."
"Brother-in-law, be careful along the way."
"Don't be in such a hurry on the road, just walk slowly."
Several people also waved and then watched Li Xiao leave.
After Li Xiao left, several people returned to the house.
The night before yesterday, the Holy Spirit sent a good signal.
Next, I am afraid that I will stay in this capital for a long time.
"Bring some gifts back to Ningyun and my mother-in-law!"
Li Xiao rode his horse and left in no hurry.
Instead, he walked around the street a few times.
I bought some small gifts and brought them back to Ningyun as a surprise.
Although she is married, Xiaoquexi is absolutely indispensable for a little romance in daily life.
Husband and wife cannot become relatives just because they have spent time and money.
Only by constantly providing romance to each other can love stay fresh.
After spending an hour and buying some specialties, Li Xiao decided to leave.
Quickly riding on horseback, he quickly left the north city gate.
But this horse can't run fast at all.
Li Xiao used his own horse, which was already at the inn, to change for this horse. He had changed it several times along the way. He could use his official seal to change horses at the official inn at any time.
He had to go back exactly the way he came, exchanging horses for horses along the way.
Until I replaced my original BMW.
Therefore, the route back this time is considered fixed, which gives some interested people an opportunity to take advantage of it.
"Drive! Drive! Drive!!"
A scream sounded
Li Xiao faced a few dozens of miles away towards the north, and suddenly felt a sense of weightlessness, and then fell into the pit.
That's right, it's really a pit.
There is a big pit on this road.
On the surface and pavement, there is actually a trap.
not far away.
The two came out slowly from the woods.
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned slightly: "Two tigers, I let you stay, do you have this idea?"
The second tiger arch said: "Back to His Majesty, the courtesy really can't think of any good law, but helplessly."
The Erhu's words were not finished, and they were interrupted by the sound of the pit in the pit.
I saw Li Xiao's anger in the pit:
"Which one of the thousands of swords, blue dermatitis, dug a big pit on the road, and fell to death.
Hear this.
Zhu Yuanzhang's mouth was gently, and his expression was obviously a little delicate
