After Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao and his son settled on the topic, they began to discuss it in front of Zhu Su. Starting from each specific government affairs, Lao Zhu explained everything to Zhu Biao one by one what should be done in the future. Zhu Biao also listened with a correct attitude and put forward his own opinions from time to time. Some Lao Zhu agreed, some did not agree, and Zhu Biao was not annoyed. The father and son cooperated tacitly, one was a good person and the other was a bad person, and they were ready to completely control the courtiers.
If it were anyone else, they would definitely be able to discern a lot about the future political direction of the Ming Dynasty during this conversation, and thus transform this valuable information into extremely important political assets for themselves in the future...
It's a pity that when Zhu Su heard it, he only felt sleepy. It was far less exciting than asking a servant girl to sing and listen to it. I couldn't help but yawned, which interrupted Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao's thoughts.
"Lao Wu, you should recover from your injuries quickly." Lao Zhu's conversation turned to Zhu Su. "Originally, you should be blamed for acting too impulsively this time. But you are quite clever. You also know how to confuse right and wrong and stab yourself with a sword. I handed you the hilt of the knife."
Zhu Su scratched his head. He didn't say that he got the advice from Yao Guangxiao, a "distinguished monk". He just listened quietly to what Lao Zhu said. Sure enough, Lao Zhu continued: "But if you are good at killing the prince of the Hou family, the basket is really big."
"You'd better go out of Beijing for a while and don't let the eyes of the government focus on you. In the past few days, there have been reports of frequent floods in Taihu Lake, and the disasters are quite serious. Many people's houses have been destroyed and their livelihoods have been lost. Yes. After you recover, go to Suzhou to help patrol and provide disaster relief..."
"Dad." Zhu Biao interrupted Lao Zhu. "The fifth brother is still young, and Suzhou is no better than others. Is it inappropriate to ask him to inspect Suzhou?"
"Why don't we go with the kids..."
"If you go, who will sing with us in the drama in the court?" Lao Zhu straightened up. "Besides, this is your job. Now that your brother is doing it for you, it can also let the court know that your two brothers are brothers and respect each other. The previous tit-for-tat confrontation was just Hu Weiyong taking advantage of your brother's youth and ignorance. I just borrowed his name."
Zhu Biao stopped talking, but still looked at Zhu Su worriedly. Although Suzhou is not far from Yingtian, this fifth brother is still young after all, and he is really worried.
Seeing Zhu Biao's expression, Zhu Su was also quite moved, and said: "Brother, don't worry, I have been arrogant with Hu Weiyong and his party these days, and I am already depressed. Going to Suzhou is just a good way to relax."
"If you are not at ease, why don't you lend me some of my subordinates? One is shameless and I ask my people to take care of one or two. The other is." Zhu Su looked at Lao Zhu. "It will also help others understand that my eldest brother and I are biological brothers, and we have no intention of competing with him!"
If he wants to compete with the most stable prince in history, Zhu Biao, for the title of heir apparent, Zhu Su will feel panicked even if he only holds the title for one day. Although I followed Lao Zhu's order last time, what if someone with no foresight comes to the door and joins my team, which makes Lao Zhu feel uncomfortable?
"What Lao Wu said is right. Biao'er, he hasn't built a mansion yet and has no one under his command. You have to lend your most useful person to your brother." Lao Zhu said.
"That's natural." Zhu Biao nodded.
The father and son exchanged some pleasantries, and Lao Zhu finally took the first step and returned to the palace. Nowadays, people in Yingtianfu City are in panic, and he, the emperor, is still needed to take charge. Going out of the city today is an exception. How can I stay longer?
After a while, Zhu Biao also returned home. Chang's birth was imminent, and he was very concerned about it. His feelings for his father had gone away, and now he just wanted to go back home to be with his wife. By the way, he also carefully studied the words he and Lao Zhu just said.
The room became quiet again. Zhu Su just sorted out the information he learned today in his mind. After all, Lao Zhu did not raise the butcher's knife as he did in history. Thinking about it, he also had the intention of minimizing the turmoil so as to retain his strength to deal with various foreign enemies around him.
Of course, he also has expectations for his eldest brother Zhu Biao. Putting aside all the bureaucratic ambitions, having benevolence but no authority is not a long-term solution after all. If the eldest brother saved those people, then he would naturally be responsible for them. If these people are indeed corrupt and bend the law in the future, then His Highness the Crown Prince should take action to deal with them both emotionally and rationally.
It just so happens that it can also give Zhu Biao a wave of prestige.
It's just... Lao Zhu asked himself to go to Suzhou. Who should he entrust to take care of the properties in his village?
Liu Bowen? But in fact, he is not a close confidant of Lao Zhu, and after the incident of Zhu Xian stealing the prescription, he may not be willing to wade into this muddy water. Now that I think about it, it was very unexpected that this old fox suddenly came to me. Could it be that at that time, he was sure that there would be unrest in the court, so he hid in my village early to avoid trouble?
It is said that Song Lian heard that Lao Zhu was going to kill many people and abolish the prime minister system. He wanted to go back to the capital to make a remonstrance, but he was stopped by Liu Bowen...
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Xiang Deng coming in with a burner of incense. He gently placed it on the table and then said, "Your Highness, Mr. Xu from Duke Wei's residence is here."
"Yungong?" Zhu Su stood up. "When did he return to the village? Call him quickly."
Zhu Xian's incident happened right after he left the Xu family's house that day. The next day, Jinyi Tiqi immediately appeared in Yingtian City. The Duke of Wei's mansion was located in the city, and Xu Da was accustomed to being cautious, so he naturally closed the mansion to thank guests that day. Xu Yungong stayed at his home in the city. A few days later, Lao Zhu taught Xu Da to come forward to take charge of Xiaoxiao Xiaoxiao in the army. In order to reject those Huaixi nobles who relied on connections to gain access, the Xu family still closed the door of the house. Therefore, until today, Xu Yungong escaped and came here. Come up to the village.
After a while, Xu Yungong came in, and first bowed to Zhu Suduan. Zhu Su laughed dumbly: "Yungong, why are you doing this? We are so familiar with each other, why do we need to be so familiar?"
"The etiquette cannot be discarded." Xu Yungong's face was strangely tight. He continued to bow with his hands clasped and said: "I heard that His Highness was injured. Yun Gong has been greatly favored by His Highness's teachings, but he couldn't come to attend to his illness immediately. It really shouldn't be..."
"Serving the sick...what do I want you to do?" Zhu Suxin said that I am not your father and you should be filial to me, but he didn't think too much about it. "You come here first. I just got the news. Wait for the injury." If it gets better, I'm afraid I'll have to go to Suzhou."
"Those things in Zhuangzi are worried that no one can entrust them to them, especially the research on the loom. You have already gained some momentum in studying things. I will give it some thought while I'm away. I'll start with the loom. Improvement and perfection..."
Before he finished speaking, his voice stopped abruptly.
Behind Xu Yungong, a figure dressed as a servant stepped into the room. That "boy" has a pretty face and a slender figure. How could he be a man?
If it’s not Xu Yungong’s biological sister Xu Miaoyun, who could it be?
