"I wonder what the hell you two were doing in the Imperial City! At first, I was still curious as to why you two came to me."
"Fortunately, I was a little moved. I thought you two thought I was too boring here alone and came to see me."
"Well, now it seems that you guys really think I'm bored, so why don't you bring me something exciting?"
"Two of you, have you recovered from your fainting? I've been urged several times by messengers. Let's be honest. Most of the decrees sent by my father were ghostwritten by my eldest brother. It's not a problem for you to keep hiding like this!"
"Can we come out and talk first?"
Chu Ze is considered his mentor, and Zhu Di is his fourth brother. For Zhu Rui, these two people are definitely worthy of his respect.
So after Zhu Di and Chu Ze came to Hengyang City, Zhu Di directly vacated the courtyard where he originally lived.
After all, Zhu Rui's achievements in Hengyang City during this period are obvious to all.
Although when he first came to Hengyang City, his reputation was not good.
It can even be said that local people have begun to use his name to scare children.
But now, no matter where Zhu Ru goes, people see him, and they salute him eagerly and say hello.
Some people even suggested building a temple for him.
All these achievements are inseparable from Chu Ze’s success and support.
This is true
However, if just for this reason, Chu Ze and his fourth brother, who were obviously committing a crime, stopped the messenger who was sending the edict.
Zhu Ru felt that this was somewhat uneconomical.
He admitted that if it was a life-threatening matter, he might have the courage to escort Chu Ze to leave secretly.
But if the danger is serious, the most it can do is a whip or a shoe sole.
Then it's obviously not worth his risk!
At most, he promised not to laugh at them when they were beaten. This was all Zhu Xi could do.
Therefore, after helping to stop him for two hours, Zhu Rui finally couldn't stop him anymore.
So under the urging of the messenger, Zhu Xi simply took the people directly to the door where Zhu Di and Chu Ze pretended to be fainted to avoid trouble.
"Sir, Fourth Brother! This little brother has done his best, you two! There are some things that we cannot hide from. We must learn to face them bravely, you know?"
"The messenger is also on official business, and that's his duty! Let's not get him in trouble."
"Then what. If you don't open the door, I'll have someone come and remove the door!"
Zhu Ju looked at the door, which was still motionless. After giving the last ultimatum, he waved his hand and told his followers to prepare to unload the door.
After hearing the noise outside, Chu Ze and Zhu Di, who had been hiding in the room, finally showed up.
I only heard the door being opened with a swish.
Zhu Di walked out of the room with a dark face.
His eyes immediately turned to Zhu Zhu, who was retreating a little guilty.
"Lao Wu, well done to you. We haven't seen each other for such a short period of time, but you are really good at what you do! You speak in a certain way."
"Hehe, fourth brother is so impressed, so impressed! What, sir, you should hurry up and accept the order."
Faced with his fourth brother's somewhat offensive words, Zhu Rui chuckled and subconsciously took two steps back.
"Zhu Zhu, what do you mean, some things cannot be avoided and you have to learn to face them bravely? Why do I feel that when these words come out of your mouth, it sounds like you are gloating about others' misfortune?"
"Hahaha, haha. Sir, you misunderstood, you misunderstood! It's impossible. How could I be gloating about my misfortune!"
"Hahaha"
Facing Chu Ze's eye roll, Zhu Xi smiled awkwardly, hoping to use this to hide his inner feelings that had been seen through.
As long as it's not something really life-threatening, it's just a matter of getting beaten up or something.
Then he is actually quite happy to take pleasure in his misfortune.
"His Royal Highness King Yan, Mr. Chu Ze, this is His Majesty's handwritten order, written by His Highness the Crown Prince! The Crown Prince gave it to you before he left, so I asked you to read it personally!"
"Okay. So what, you go back and resume your life first."
After seeing that Chu Ze and King Yan had finally come out, the messenger who came to deliver the message finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He is just an errand boy. Whether it is Chu Ze or the two princes, this shows that no one can be offended by him!
If they really didn't accept the order, he would really have nothing to do!
And if it continues like this, he won't be able to go back and deliver the work.
After Chu Ze took over the imperial edict, he waved his hand to send him back. He had no intention of looking at the imperial edict in his hand.
The little messenger couldn't help but become a little anxious.
"Well, sir, His Highness the Crown Prince means that I have to send the letter back. Why don't you read it now?"
After hearing what the messenger said, Chu Ze also knew that it was probably impossible to hide.
So, after taking a deep breath, he could only silently open the imperial edict in his hand.
Zhu Di also came over nervously at this time.
He wanted to see how his elder brother or father planned to deal with them.
At this time, Zhu Rui also put his head together to take a peek.
However, after noticing his actions, Chu Ze flicked the imperial edict in his hand and slapped the back of it into Zhu Ju's face.
"Okay, I've read it. You go back and tell the prince. I understand. I know it well."
"As you command!"
The messenger was relieved after finally receiving the reply.
In order to prevent another accident, he quickly turned around and ran away.
In the courtyard, Zhu Ji peeked at the failure, and Chu Ze and Zhu Di, who were in high and low moods after reading the imperial edict.
He could say his curiosity was about to explode at this point.
"Well, you two, you all came to me to take refuge. Don't you think you should share with me what earth-shattering and ghost-weeping things you have done?"
"Even if we didn't help you stop the messenger in the end, I did delay it for you for a few hours. Share it with me, maybe I can help you with some advice."
"With multiple people, at least there are multiple ways!"
"I think you want to say, if there is anything exciting, tell me immediately so that you can be happy and happy, right?"
Zhu Di looked at Zhu Xi who was trying to move up. He directly pressed the opponent's face and pushed him to the side.
After Chu Ze read the imperial edict sent by Zhu Biao again, he felt that he was starting to feel bad.
"Have you made a mistake? How can there be such a punishment in history? Promotion, official rank four. Having to participate in court meetings in the future will be fatal!"
"Shouldn't they be demoted to common people?"
Three or four in the morning.
Logically speaking, this time should be the best time for people to sleep.
However, in the future, Chu Ze was told that once there was an early morning meeting.
He had to get up at this hour, and then prepare to go to court.
After grinding and chattering for several hours, the morning meeting began.
Moreover, the most painful thing is that during the court meeting, you have to get up early in the morning and drink as little water as possible, and it is best not to eat.
Because going to court is not a class.
If you have a third emergency or something.
You can also raise your hand, ask for a day off, and go somewhere convenient.
If this happened to be a time when people in a house full of people were discussing national affairs and the life and death of a country.
Your special code suddenly shouted from the side, Your Majesty, wait a minute, let me go take a shit.
To put it mildly, even if I beat the shit out of you, it would be considered a minor offense.
The more serious thing is to beat the shit out of you, then punch you into the shit, and finally beat you with your shit!
Torture, top torture!
"Hey, you're okay! I'm still in confinement. I don't know when the war will start. But as it is now, it will probably be at least a month before the war starts. I'll be in confinement for a month, damn it. I have to~~"
"Don't think about it. We are just getting ready for autumn. If we start a war, at least half of the autumn will be over."
"In autumn and summer, it is easy to encounter typhoons on the sea. Especially in summer."
"So, if we let the war begin at this time, I will also persuade your father and the others to postpone it."
"."
A ban and a promotion.
For Chu Ze and Zhu Di, these two punishments were like a direct slap on their face.
If he was really imprisoned for several months, Zhu Di felt that he would be at least half crazy.
"What should we do now? Brother means that if we finish what we are doing, we can go back as soon as possible. Do you want to go back now?"
Zhu Di naturally didn't want to be imprisoned or anything like that.
But if you just keep hiding like this, it doesn’t seem to be a problem!
It is basically impossible not to go back.
"Procrastinate! If you can procrastinate for a whole day, let me go to the morning court. Isn't this life-threatening?"
After Chu Ze finished speaking, he thought for a moment.
He simply returned to the room.
Then he pulled the quilt and covered his head directly.
When Zhu Di saw this, he simply followed Chu Ze's example and ran directly to another bed, fell down and went to sleep.
Zhu Rui was left standing at the door with a confused face.
What kind of imprisonment, what kind of promotion?
What on earth did they do?
Why do they look at the two of them with such expressions that life would be worse than death?
In the end what happened! Who can explain it to me?
Zhu Rui was just about to lick his face and ask again, but before he entered Chu Ze's room, a subordinate hurried to his side.
Then after whispering something in Zhu Ru's ear, Zhu Ru's brows suddenly wrinkled.
"Is this really happening?"
"It's absolutely true!"
"Take me there."
Zhu Xi looked at Chu Ze and Zhu Di who were lying directly on the bed with their bodies stretched out.
After a slight hesitation, he finally stopped disturbing the two of them.
However, what he didn't notice was that after he left, Chu Ze and Zhu Di, who were covering their heads with quilts and preparing to sleep, couldn't help but look in the direction he left.
"Is something wrong?"
"It seems so. Let's take a look?"
"Walk!"
