"Zhang Min wants to see you?"
Zhu Gaojie thought about it in his mind for a while, and then he remembered that this was his future wife's second uncle.
"This father-in-law's thighs are not that easy to hug." Zhu Gaojie said with a chuckle.
This piece of paper is probably here to test him.
Without knowing the basics, how could the Zhang family safely tie themselves and Zhu Gaojie to the same boat.
…
Zhang Xi walked into the main courtyard of the palace and saw a young man wearing a white robe with wide sleeves standing under an evergreen tree.
The young man has bright eyes and white teeth, a straight nose and thin lips. He has an easy-going temperament, as gentle and clean as sunshine, giving people a comfortable feeling.
The first impression is very good, he is quite handsome.
"My lord, Jinwu's avant-garde commander, Zhang Xi, comes to see the prince." Zhang Xi bowed and saluted.
Zhu Gaojie frowned slightly when he heard this and reported for the official position. Zhang Shi planned to distance himself from him and told him, "Although the emperor has granted marriage, our old Zhang family has not agreed to the marriage yet."
Zhu Gaojie pursed his lips and smiled and said, "Second uncle, we are all one family, why should we be so polite?"
Damn it? !
Zhang Min almost couldn't help blurting out, "Who the hell is your second uncle?"
Why are you so familiar with me?
"Your Majesty, you and your niece have not yet gotten married. Isn't it too early to call your second uncle?" Zhang Min said with a dark face.
"No matter how early or not, no one dares to say 'no' to the marriage granted by the emperor, unless...you, the Zhang family, want to resist the decree!"
Zhu Gaojie said with a smile, "If the Zhang family is willing to resist the decree in order to deny this marriage, then I will not force it."
Zhang Xi:......
King Qi has moved the emperor out, what else can he say?
…
Qianqing Palace
Zhu Di stroked his beard and wondered what he was thinking about.
The eldest eunuch was waiting on the side, feeling a little strange and wondering why the emperor was always distracted recently.
Suddenly, Zhu Di said: "Draw up a decree to promote Jinwu's vanguard commander Zhang Xi to the right commander of the Central Army Commandery."
Regardless of the reason, he was promoted to three levels in a row.
The big eunuch's eyebrows stood up. He had never seen such a thing, no, he had never heard of it!
"My slave obeys the order."
How dare the eunuch ask anything? His duty is to do his job well. Zhu Di said he would do whatever he asked him to do.
Your Majesty is a saint, and his will must be reasonable.
If the emperor is wrong, it means that the world is wrong, and the world should not disobey my emperor.
…
At Prince Qi's house, Zhang Min didn't know that his official career was about to reach the sky. He was working hard to match Zhu Gaojie's wits and courage.
Zhang Xi must admit that he underestimated Prince Qi because of the rumors.
This little kid is sharp-tongued and eloquent, and most importantly, he is very thick-skinned.
The maid brought the tea tray: "Your Majesty, please have some tea."
Zhu Gaojie picked up a white porcelain tea cup and handed it to Zhang Shi: "Second uncle, would you like to have a taste?"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the tea."
Zhang Mian took the tea cup and took a sip. It was fresh and refreshing, leaving a fragrance on his lips and teeth. He couldn't help but exclaimed, "Good tea!"
With this good tea in his stomach, Zhang Mian temporarily forgot to argue with Zhu Gaojie about his second uncle.
"Jianning Prefecture in Fujian carefully selects the white tea that comes as tribute. It produces two kilograms a year, and I rarely get to drink it."
Zhu Gaojie said with a smile, "If my second uncle likes it, I will ask my servants to send all the inventory given to me by the emperor to my second uncle's house."
"No need!"
Zhang Min didn't know what Prince Qi was planning, so he said cautiously, "I'm not lucky enough to enjoy such good tea. Just have a cup of tea."
"Second uncle, what do you mean by this!" Zhu Gaojie raised his eyebrows and said, "I don't want anything from you, so why should I be so vigilant? Isn't it because I don't want to give myself face?"
Zhang Min blinked, hesitated for a while, and then said: "Then I will thank the prince here."
"Oh, that's right." Zhu Gaojie nodded slightly and said, "After drinking this cup of tea, let's discuss when to get married."
"puff!"
The tea that Zhang Min just took into his mouth spurted out. He looked at Zhu Gaojie in disbelief: "What did the prince just say?"
"It's about getting married." Zhu Gaojie said with a smile, "After drinking this cup of tea, we will be a family from now on."
Zhang Xi looked at the teacup and fell into deep thought.
Something feels wrong, but I can't put my finger on it.
…
After sending Zhang Shi away, the smile on Zhu Gaojie's face gradually faded.
In fact, he knew in his heart that there was no turning back.
The old man didn't know what kind of wind he had, so he pushed him up.
Just relying on the power of the British Duke in the Ming Dynasty, it was impossible for the prince and the king of Han to regard him as the harmless King Qi.
"Things are getting interesting."
Zhu Gaojie looked in the direction of Qianqing Palace, "Old man, is this the situation you want to see?"
…
East Palace
"father!"
Zhu Zhanji ran over panting, put his hands on his hips, and said hurriedly, "The emperor has another seizure! He gave the British Duke's eldest daughter in marriage to his fourth uncle!"
The prince, who was eating cakes leisurely, paused slightly with his hand movements, and then continued to eat cakes calmly.
Zhu Zhanji was puzzled: "You are really my biological father. After such a big mess, are you still so calm?"
The prince glanced at him: "You have the ability to ask the emperor to take back the imperial edict?"
"Come on, grandpa's temper, who can persuade him?" Zhu Zhanji curled his lips and said: "The British Lord has a heavy army, and he is the military god of the Ming Dynasty. You are not afraid that the King of Han will win over King Qi. When the time comes, Suppress the East Palace?"
The prince smiled and said: "Little bastard, you are young, aren't you?"
Zhu Zhanji was puzzled: "What do you mean?"
The prince pointed in the direction of Qianqing Palace and said: "That person is clear, little boy, you still have a lot to learn."
"It's not us who should be anxious now, it's the second child."
Zhu Zhanji was thoughtful.
…
"Zhu Di, I'm a fool!"
As the prince expected, Prince Han was furious at this moment.
"Damn it, old man, what do you mean?"
Prince Han pushed the fine Ru kiln vase to the ground and let it break into pieces.
After the news about the emperor's marriage to the British Duke and King Qi spread, the King of Han's mind suddenly changed, and he realized that his long-standing plan to win over King Qi was in vain.
He has the British government's secrets, so he still likes the Prince of Han?
This move can be regarded as sowing discord, because various subtle situations have determined that the King of Han and King Qi will not join forces, but will fight to the death.
The military's pit is only this big in total, and it cannot accommodate two dragons.
It is impossible for the Ming Dynasty to have two princes with heavy military forces. The result is that either the King of Han will be eliminated or the King of Qi will be eliminated. One of the princes must be kicked out of the military pit.
"Prepare your horses, I want to go to Prince Qi's Mansion!" King Han roared angrily.
Princess Han came over and said a little tiredly: "My lord, why are you so angry? Everyone in the palace is so frightened that they are trembling."
"The King of Han is now very angry: "The old man really killed three birds with one stone this time, stabbed King Qi's skin swallow, and stabbed the British Duke's skin swallow. "
"Didn't this hit our home..." Princess Han whispered, "Since it has nothing to do with us, why are you anxious?"
"You know nothing!" King Han shouted tiredly, "This last stab will kill me!"
"Punk from Pi Yanzi to the intestines!"
