The teenagers ate an astonishing amount of food, and within a short time, the basket of food that Zhu Biao had brought had been wiped out. "Sister-in-law's craftsmanship is getting better and better!" Zhu Su said to his brothers with a look of unfinished expression. Zhu Xi, Zhu Di and others nodded frequently.
Zhu Fan glanced at him, turned around and asked Zhu Biao, "Brother, can you still bring food into the palace tomorrow?"
"I'm afraid it will be difficult." Zhu Biao said. "Not only tomorrow, I'm afraid I won't be able to escape recently."
"As I said just now, hail fell on Long Live Mountain in Zhongdu. There was also a lunar eclipse not long ago."
"Zhongdu is the place where the dragons of our Zhu family are flourishing. Now that there is a vision today, the Ministry of Rites has asked my father to offer sacrifices to the ancestors of heaven and earth."
"Father has already agreed. Tomorrow I will issue an order to fast in the capital. As descendants of the Zhu family, we must set an example."
"Don't say you can't eat these anymore, I'm afraid the original food in the palace will have to be downgraded."
As soon as these words came out, a group of young men suddenly cried out in grief. Zhu Laosi said with a face: "I'm already a humble person, why should I be downgraded?"
"At least there can't be any more meat and vegetables." Zhu Laosan also looked sad.
Only then did several people realize that this meal was actually the last meat meal they had eaten recently. Zhu Xi was already annoyed. He was just grabbing the food and forgot to chew it slowly and savor it carefully.
Now, once you start fasting, you won't be able to taste meat for at least a month.
Zhu Biao was busy with his affairs and could not stay for a long time, so he said goodbye to his brothers and left. The young men sat back down again, and each of them found a good friend to chat with. Only Zhu Di had his hands crossed in front of the table, wondering what he was thinking.
"Second brother, third brother, fifth brother."
"After all, the food brought by the elder brother was a little less, and it was not very satisfying to eat."
"I'm thinking that there should be some meat and vegetables in the imperial dining room that are too late to prepare. Why don't we go to the imperial dining room and quietly take some and roast them in the back garden..."
This guy is so greedy that he even wants to steal meat from the royal kitchen!
Zhu Su looked shocked, looking at Zhu Di as if he was looking at some treacherous villain.
Did Emperor Yongle deserve a beating so much when he was young?
Ah, by the way, I seemed to have done this a few days ago.
"I'd better forget it." Zhu Ping waved his hands dejectedly. "Old man Li asked me to copy the 'Records of Zhenguan' before he left. I have to hurry up, otherwise, I will have to burn the midnight oil again tonight."
It was one thing to butt heads with his master in a hot-blooded manner, but he didn't dare to blatantly refuse to do his homework. Queen Ma's strict discipline is not just talk.
"The emperor is in a state of distress because of various things. I advise you not to stroke your father's beard." Zhu Fan looked at Zhu Di's butt in a playful way. "Lest I get beaten by my father again."
However, Zhu Su thought about it and felt quite interested. He stood up and said, "Fourth brother, I will accompany you!"
"Lao Wu?" Zhu Fan was stunned. "Fourth is acting nonsense, why are you following suit?"
Zhu Di was overjoyed: "Lao Wu, good brother!"
"I really didn't enjoy it just now." Zhu Su smiled at Zhu Di, then turned to explain to Zhu Fan.
"Besides, it's just about being beaten. I'm used to being next to each other..."
"Hahahaha, this is true!" Zhu Di put his arms around Zhu Su's neck.
"...That's all. What a nonsense." Zhu Fan frowned and stopped looking at his two younger brothers. "...be careful yourself."
"Let's go." Zhu Di laughed. "Second brother, I will bring it back to you!"
"Bring more!" Zhu Ming, who was writing furiously, didn't even raise his head. Judging from his unrestrained movements, the wildly drafted version of "Zhenguan Chronicles" should be released soon.
…
The imperial dining room is the territory of Xu Xingzu, the imperial chef of the imperial palace. However, it was Zhu Yuanzhang's meal time at this time, and it was time for Xu Xingzu to personally bring his lunch and present it to Lao Zhu. Therefore, the imperial dining room is in an empty state.
The two brothers Zhu Di and Zhu Su peeked outside the window. After confirming that there was no sound inside, Zhu Di immediately turned over and got in, and then stretched out his hand to drag Zhu Su in.
He is indeed a habitual offender! Zhu Su cast an admiring look at the thirteen-year-old Emperor Yongle.
The two brothers searched for a while and immediately found a white and washed whole chicken. It has even been pickled with ginger slices and other things. It should be used by Lao Zhu to stew chicken soup at night.
What a good thing!
The two looked at each other, and after confirming their eyes, Zhu Su immediately found a basin and put the chicken in it, while Zhu Di ran to the big stove, picked up a few pieces of charcoal and pocketed it in the hem of his clothes.
He didn't even open the window, he just ran away from the door.
There is a high chance that you will be discovered while roasting chicken in the Royal Garden, so instead of being sneaky, it is better to deal with it quickly. After all, if they had eaten it in their stomachs, could Lao Zhu order them to spit it out?
If you're lucky and your hands and feet are sharper, you might be able to completely bury the traces before someone passes by.
"Lao Wu, I really have you." Zhu Di looked at Zhu Su happily, seeming very excited that someone would enjoy this excitement with him. "I used to think you were just a dull gourd, but I didn't expect you to be a courageous guy like me!"
"Ah haha..." Zhu Su just smiled and didn't answer.
He had already shown off his cards to Lao Zhu, so there was no need for him to pretend to be a marginal person.
It's better to let yourself go and do whatever you want. Anyway, Lao Zhu loves his son and will not do anything to himself.
When the news from the Northern Expedition came back, he believed that he was a time traveler, and his happy time traveling life began!
The two of them hid under a willow tree and secretly lit a fire. Suddenly, Zhu Di's hand stopped moving. "Lao Wu, did you hear anything?"
"Voice?" Zhu Su was also stunned. Listened for a while. "No, fourth brother, did you hear it correctly?"
"No, there must be!" Zhu Di stood up, his face full of determination. Unfortunately, the charcoal stains on his cheeks made him look very funny.
"it's here!"
Zhu Di pushed aside a clump of flowers with a single lunge. Among the flowers, I saw a girl of about ten years old with a stunned look on her face, with tears that she hadn't had time to wipe away.
"Who are you! Why are you hiding here!" Zhu Di asked sternly with a stern face.
"Fourth brother, you scared her." Zhu Su pulled Zhu Di behind him. She's just a little palace maid, don't frighten people.
He squatted down and tried to put on a gentle expression: "Which palace are you a maid? Why are you hiding here?"
"He's not a ghost, his face was just stained by charcoal. Don't be afraid."
Zhu Su is still very gentle when dealing with girls. It's just that he didn't realize that the way he spoke looked more like a villain with ulterior motives than Zhu Di.
A real weird person who tricked a little lolita into looking at a goldfish.
"What palace maid? Look at her, there are no palace maid's clothes on her body!" Zhu Di, however, protected Zhu Su behind him. Zhu Su was stunned. Only then did he realize that the girl was wearing a long aqua silk coat. The material was obviously not something that a palace maid could afford.
"Tell me! What do you want to do when you sneak into this imperial garden!" Zhu Di continued to ask.
The girl was startled again, but unexpectedly, she was not so frightened that she lost her sense of proportion. She quickly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, stood up, bowed her hands and bowed. Although she was still young, her demeanor showed the demeanor of a lady. "The little girl Xu Miaoyun has met His Highness King Yan and His Highness King Wu."
"Xu Miaoyun?" Zhu Di was stunned by the girl's generous appearance. Zhu Su had already reacted. He looked at the girl in surprise, and then at Zhu Laosi in front of him.
Could it be that I...
Bumping into Emperor Yongle and Empress Xu, the scene of the historic acquaintance of this pair of emperors and empresses?
